Eleuthera & Harbour Island

A Bahamas Independence celebration would not be complete without a cultural show which showcases our Bahamian culture and talents. Some of the activities include singing, dancing, instrumental selections, junkanoo rush-outs, plaiting of the maypole, and fireworks.

The month of July is special to the people of The Bahamas. This is the month in which Bahamians celebrate and remember when The Bahamas gained its independence, July 10th, 1973.
Come out and join the congregation of St. Stephen's Baptist Church as they celebrate The Bahamas' 52nd Independence.

Discover beautifully handcrafted items from talented Eleuthera artisans and vendors. Enjoy the vibrant sounds of a live Bahamian band, experience the excitement of a Junkanoo rush-out, and savor authentic Bahamian food and refreshing drinks.

Bring the entire family and join us for an unforgettable day of culture, music, and fun!

This event is a great way to support our Eleuthera local artists and vendors. Here you will be able to purchase beautiful paintings, locally made crafts, and souvenirs. There will also be down home native food and cold beverages for sale.

Bring the children out and allow them to enjoy the natural scenes at the Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve.

The We Farmer's Market is an initiative established by the One Eleuthera Foundation. The purpose of the farmer's market is to encourage people to purchase locally grown produce, eat healthier and also to be able to plant and harvest their own produce.

The We Farmer's Market occurs the third Saturday of each month.

This event is held mainly for pre-school, primary and secondary schools to learn about their culture. This will ensure the growth and survival of junkanoo for years to come. "Come feel the rush Eleuthera style!!"

There will be drummers, trumpet blowers, cowbell shakers, and so much more.
