Award-winning artist Keri Hilson will perform at a New Year’s Eve event on Front Street.

The American act, who joined forces with Timbaland for the 2007 chart-topping hit The Way I Are, has also collaborated with Kanye West, Ne-Yo, Nelly, Lil Wayne, R. Kelly and Chris Brown.

In 2009, she won the BET Award for Best New Artist, has more than 1.6 million Instagram followers and has appeared in movies including Riddick and Think Like a Man.

She said: “I have heard so many wonderful things about Bermuda and I’m thrilled to finally get the chance to visit.

“Performing on New Year’s Eve is always a little extra special for me and I look forward to welcoming 2018 with my Bermuda fans in such a beautiful place.”

The events on New Year’s Eve will kick-off at 7.30pm with a family movie followed by live musical entertainment from Working Title, Olivia Hamilton and the Keri Hilson concert. Food vendors and a kids’ zone will also be on site.

A limited number of $50 VIP tickets are available for the concert, which include a dedicated bar and front row access. Tickets will go on sale next week on www.ptix.bm.
