Ends: Saturday 21 February
This festival has been running for 33 years in order to celebrate and remember the beginning of Holetown as a settlement. It commemorates the day that eighty English settlers arrived by boat in Holetown in 1627 and from this day Barbados became a British Colony. Entertainment includes a variety of music, such as Gospel and Calypso as well as Folk Dancing staged at free open-air concerts. There is also an Arts and Craft Exhibition, a display called “Beating the Retreat” by the Barbados Defence Force and a Flood Lit Tattoo which is put on by the Police and a parade of Vintage Motors.
