Belize is a country with a vibrant culture and cuisine, and a community of expats from this Central American nation will be putting these on display during the Belize Family Day in the Park celebration.
Mid-May will see this Houston activity roll out the red carpet for the general public, and Tom Bass Regional Park has been reserved for the occasion. It will explore everything from the music of Belize’s mainland to the people and attractions of San Pedro Island, and general admission is open to all ages.
The schedule for the occasion runs from the afternoon until the early evening, and those who sign up ahead of time can score their passes for free. They can expect to be treated to live entertainment as well as food, snow-cones, a bounce house, and other fun. A maypole and sack race are both the agenda, and a punta contest is the word as well. Everyone is welcome to bring a folding chair so they can relax and enjoy themselves.
Many communities host this sort of festival during the summer months to take advantage of the weather. Banner printing services for most types of occasions will be on offer at a local printer.
This salute to Belizean music, food and culture will be kicking off at 2:00 pm on Saturday, May 13. Tickets may be reserved in advance by visiting its listing on Eventbrite.
