F rom the World Creole Music Festival in late October, to Independence in November followed by February's Carnival , the major events of the year are either side of Christmas.
T hroughout the year many communities have village feasts.
Usually held over a weekend, the feast may start with a church service, followed by events throughout the day, and culminates in a dance in the village hall or school. Club Magic at Loubiere is gaining a good reputation and is a few minutes walk from my favourite bar, Spiders . Also try Scorpio in Morne Daniel, or Sylvania Discotheque in Sylvania every week end. I n Portsmouth, the Paladium Disco , recently opened by Portsmouth Beach Hotel is the most popular disco to go to on weekends. There is also Le Perroquet , located centrally in Lagoon.
