Independence weekend kicks off at the Divali Nagar site where The National Council for Indian Culture (NCIC) will be hosting their 3rd Annual Rainbow Dance Festival on Saturday 30th of August 2014. This event promises to be a beautiful night of dance as every cultural group in Trinidad will be represented. Their flyer is posted below for further reference.
Independence Day starts off with a bang in San Fernando with their Dragon Boat Regatta at 9:00am on The Waterfront (King's Warf). This will be a sight to behold and the event I am most excited to attend.
It's an all day affair in San Fernando after the Dragon Boat Regatta. It will be a day of fun and entertainment for the whole family as the City of San Fernando hosts a Cultural Show, live Steel Bands Orchestra and Tassa. San Fernando's Independence Day will culminate with a Grand Fireworks Show on the San Fernando Hill at 8:30pm.
If you live in Central and don't feel like traversing down to San Fernando to join in their all day festivities, Central has events planned for you too.
The perfect lunch solution is in store for you at the Chinmaya Ashram of Mc Bean as they invite you to part take in their International Food Fair with over 108 Dishes on sale from 12 to 6pm. This will indeed be a delicious event and one I will be sure not to miss!
After filling up your tummies, head on over to the 3rd Annual Fishing Tournament hosted by the Felicity Charlieville Fishing Association for some fishing fun! Be there to witness the teams as they bring in their catch for judging. See the youngest male and female fisher folk and cheer them on. Be sure to be a part of the fun and excitement.
There sure are many very exciting events this Independence weekend, a good opportunity for the kids to have some fun and experience some of Trinidad's culture before they head back out to school.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE!!
