Holders Season is the West Indies' premier arts festival, taking place yearly in the magnificent gardens surrounding the 17th-century Holders House in St James. Guests sip champagne and soak up the broad sweep of theatre, opera and musical concerts.
Holders Season seeks out exciting new works and talent as well as showcasing internationally renowned artists. Former successes include a visit from Pavarotti, the world première of an opera by Stuart Copeland and a striking new production of Shakespeare's The Tempest, which incorporated music from the Caribbean.
Please visit the Holder's website for full details of the programme.
