Trellis Bay Full Moon Party
A little slower than Foxy’s and more family oriented, Trellis Bay rings in the New Year with a few hundred party goers enjoying food, entertainment, drinks and much more subdued celebrations. The Mocko Jumbies dressed in their brightly coloured costumes, traipsing around, towering over everyone and dancing on the beach is really quite a sight! That combined with Aragorn Dick Reed’s famous fireballs blazing in the background makes them even more mesmerizing. Local Fungi bands (which is the BVI’s own music style) are often invited to play at the party. The bands consist of many different musical instruments, some of which are home made. Fungi is a blend of different musical styles and (similar to Calypso) is often geared towards social and political satire, historical storytelling, romantic pursuits and day to day life in the islands.
