Belize, Central America: Calendar of Events

Garifuna Settlement Day showcases the rich, unique Garifuna culture with the commemoration of their first arrival in Belize in 1832. Dance along to local punta music and watch the re-enactment of the first settlers sailing into one of the ports.

The Garifuna flag is raised throughout the country: a colourful mix of yellow, white and black. Yellow is for the sun, white represents peace and black is the colour of the people.
