Crossbreed Supersoul (excellent mauritian rock band) will be @ Riverland Tamarin Saturday 14th at 7H30 pm. Tickets sold at 250 rs or 200 rs in advance at Riverland and Big Willy's. Don't miss this hot hot hot event !

Has anyone been to Grand Port?The bicentenary of the Grand Port Battle between the French and The British.

They have recreated the village as it was then, and some aspects of the battle and have an art expo (not great) and some original dodos by Mauritian artists.

As for the Grand Port event, it's at Pointe Canon,in Mahebourg (south east of the Island).It marks the bicentenary of the Grand Port Naval war between the French and the British-the French won btw. They recreated the lifestyle of 1810, with the African slaves,Indian indentured labourers, chinese immigrants etc.

There's also an expo on Dodos and some paintings by Mauritians and international artists.

You can have laser shows, music concerts by artists here and surrounding Islands.

There's a Artistic fair and Craft corner, where you buy stuff.

There's a food court and a museum and you have sea tours to the Ile de La Passe where there are forts, an old church etc.

I can't upload pictures here, if you need more info send me a mail on [email protected] with Grand Port 2010 as subject and I'll be more than happy to send some pictures.

The entry is Rs. 25 for adults (children and elders are free).

It's worth the trip!

Cheers.

The Girls Gone Rock concert at Indigo this Saturday 28th august 2010.

There was a first night of Carmen Opera yesterday at J&J Auditorium, Phoenix. Great performance. Highly recommend. It's the first proper opera theater on the Island. Sounds very promising and the level of performance was great. Carmen will be on stage until September 19th. Do not miss it. blog.lingvo-consult.ru/?p=472 here is a map hw to get there

Yes, and Natasha Finette-COnstantin will be at the Conservatoire Francois Mitterand at Quatre Bornes today at 20H.

Can only confirm Anton's review. It is THE cultural event of the month in maurice. great enthusiasm by all concerned. I'd recommend it to everyone, if you can make it. well worth the Rs 750 or whatever ticket you get.

thanks guys for your feedback !

where can you buy tickets?

Try Rezo Otayo
otayo.com/

You can buy online.

just take something to eat and drink with you to carmen since it is very long and the theatre seem to not be able to profide the patrons with stuff to buy....   (they were totally overwelmed the opening night)

How long is it? Do you have a pause or something?

There are 2 x 15min breaks, the first one after about 1.5hrs and then after another hour.  The total show is about 4 hours. Very long if you are thirsty!

Thanks Hanlie.

That's really long! But I guess worth it.I hope they still have tickets left!

Hey everyone,

I know it's a short notice, but there's a Global Work Party tomorrow, 10/10/10, to raise awareness on climate change issues in Mauritius. It's at the Plaza in Rose Hill, starting around 10am. Hope you can make it... 350.org/en/node/17934

Thanks,
