In addition to the music, an executive chef cook-off is expected to add flavour to the event which will also feature flat screen television sets for soccer fans to view the finals of the World Cup now on in Brazil.
“Patrons will not miss out on the game as we are going to put up flat screen television sets around the venue during the day,” Jackie Norman, executive director of Caribbean Shrimp Festival, noted.
She further underscored that the organising team has pulled out all the stops to ensure that this year’s event is better than the two previous stagings.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this year’s Caribbean Shrimp Festival is going to be super. The family show will also include several activities for children and giveaways throughout the day,” Norman noted.
The event, which will highlight a wide range of shrimp cuisine, will also feature a mini circus.
Norman saluted all the sponsors that are onboard, including the two major sponsors, FR&A and CPJ.
