Another Bermuda institution will soon be back for the summer season with the return of Harbour Nights on Wednesday, May 7. This will be in the usual time-slot from 7pm until 10pm and will continue up until September 3.

Most of you are very familiar with it but for any newbies or tourists reading this, every Wednesday of the summer months Front Street is closed to traffic and instead is filled with vendor stalls with various arts and crafts, al fresco dining, late night shopping until 9pm and live music and entertainment.

With an emphasis on keeping it local, there will be lots of Bermuda-made items for sale. The aim is to create a traditional authentic cultural experience that both tourists and locals can enjoy. The route is in a loop from the Flag Pole along Front Street, up Queen Street, to Reid Street, along to Burnaby Hill and then back down to the Flag Pole. There is no cover charge.

Whether you have an interest in breakdance, are looking for some new moves to add to your nightclub selection or simply want to come out and support a good cause, you won’t want to miss the Charity Breakdance Workshop on Friday, May 9. Two separate classes are being held at The Athletic Club from 6.30pm and 7.30pm and then from 7.30pm to 8.30pm. No prior dance experience is required, just a lot of enthusiasm and a little bit of attitude. The cost is $10 and all proceeds will benefit the Bermuda Cancer & Health Centre (through Bermuda Relay for Life). For more information, or to register, contact Gayle Lindsay at gaylelindsay1@gmail.com or 591-2709 or Kiran Jagoowani on kiran.jagoowani@gmail.com or 591-5043.
