Head Downtown today (August 7th) from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. for the 5th Annual Caribbean Street Festival. Taste Caribbean food, and see live entertainment on Hunter Street between George and Water.

"Organized in early August to loosely coincide with Independence Day in Jamaica and Bermuda, the Festival has grown each year with more entertainers, food vendors, businesses and non-profits exhibiting their wares! Children’s activities will be available in the Kids Zone and community members can enjoy live entertainment; both local and regional, sample delicious Caribbean-inspired food from local restaurants, browse various merchandise outlets, and experience the unique carnival culture that the Caribbean has to offer!"

Stay up to date by following the event on Facebook and Twitter.
