DWTN Winter Lime | Family Day Holiday

Highlights

DWTN Winter Lime

We’re bringing the Caribbean to the heart of Victoria this winter! DWTN Winter Lime is transforming Ship Point into a cultural market which will take place on the Family Day holiday (Monday, February 17, 2025). This event is the perfect way to spend your time during Family Day! Bring your loved ones, enjoy a fun-filled day and immerse yourself in the warm culture of the Caribbean.

What’s a Lime?
In Trinidadian culture, “liming” means relaxing, socializing, and enjoying good company—and that’s exactly what DWTN Winter Lime is all about. This all-ages event invites families, friends, and individuals to come together, connect, and celebrate Caribbean culture in a cozy winter setting.

What to Expect?

🍽️ Caribbean Food: Get ready  for a taste of the Caribbean among other types of cultural foods.

🛒 Market Vibes: Enjoy a variety of vendors featuring Caribbean and African-inspired goods, crafts, and services.

🎲 Kid-Friendly Activities: A fun-filled zone for kids featuring Caribbean Quest, an educational treasure hunt, and storytime, where we explore the significance of Black hair through storytelling and discussion.
