Close your eyes during the live Steel Drum performances and you could swear you were sitting on a beach on a Caribbean night. The whole event presentation is one big party and you’ll find it very difficult to resist the urge to stomp your feet and sway your thighs. The show wraps up with a breath taking Limbo Performance that adds Fire to an already Hot Hot Hot presentation!

Take a trip to the Caribbean where you will groove to the music of our steel pan orchestra and be amazed by the moves of our limber limbo dancer and our carnival dancers. Excite your taste buds with some delicious curry chicken or beef with rice, roti, Jamaican patties, jerk wings, piña colada and our signature rum punch. Head out to the patio to take in more entertainment or grab a Carib or Red Stripe in the beer garden. Don’t miss our steel pan demonstration and our beautiful arts and crafts from the Caribbean islands. [FOLKLORAMA: CARIBBEAN PAVILION]
