Jun 16 - Get Ready To Tuck Into This Year's Calentita Festival
Calentita Night will take place on Saturday night, and this year’s event will see and Gibraltar Cultural Services together with Word of Mouth are aiming to provide a very entertaining programme for this year’s gastronomy festival.
Apart from a wealth of food and drink, the public will be able to enjoy a varied number of activities including music, dance and cooking demonstrations.
The Festival that is now in its 9th year will see the biggest Calentita event to date and will once again see an expansion of the event into Market Place and into Fish Market Road. This move is expected to greatly ease congestion and spreading people out more, making it easier for those attending to move about and enjoy Calentita.
To coincide with the Government’s manifesto commitments other innovations to Calentita include an increase to more than 40 tents serving food, a Gourmet Tapas Experience and an Argentinean Parillada Fire Pit.
These innovations will be added to the old favourite stalls encompassing many of the cultures that make up our community including British, Moroccan, Indian, German, Portuguese stalls, amongst others.
The Organisers also promise a full and varied programme of entertainment including:
- Jonathan Lutwyche, semi-finalist at this year’s Britain’s Got Talent
- Dance performances by local dance groups coordinated by the GNDO
- Musical performance by the Latin Jazz Trio
- Performance by singer Paddy Taylor
- Live Cooking Demonstrations from some of Gibraltar’s Top Local Chefs
The annual Calentita Night will be held on Saturday 20th June 2015 at Grand Casemates Square as from 7pm till 1am.
