Destination Dockyard

Bermuda's fun and exciting West End event sponsored by the West End Development Corporation (WEDCO) and hosted by the Chamber of Commerce is held each Monday during the summer months – there's a festival of fun taking place at the West End! Arrive at the Royal Naval Dockyard by 8:00 pm and let the good times roll until 10:30 pm.

As you step off the ferry at Dockyard, vendors displaying their crafts and talents will greet you. Stores stay open later at Clocktower Shopping Mall, and it's fun to browse for unique gifts at the Craft market and galleries, watch glassblowers at work, sample rum cakes, stroll through the Victualling Yard, and visit attractions such as Snorkel Park and Dolphin Quest Bermuda.

Adding to the festive atmosphere are musicians, dancers and other entertainers. Particularly popular are Gombey dancers and drummers, who reflect Bermuda's African, Native American and British colonial heritage with lively rhythms and vibrant costumes adorned with sequins, yarn fringe and trailing ribbons. Their rhythmic, age-old dances never fail to delight the crowds. It's the perfect way to spend a balmy summer evening.

2010!

Destination Dockyard 2010 was a great success! Thousands of locals and visitors participated in our Dockyard Street Festival during it's 10 week run. There was a wide variety of vendors selling fabulous merchandise and food which really made the party atmosophere.

This event would not have been possible without the support of our valued sponsors West End Development Corporation, Bermuda Department of Tourism, Norweigian Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean International.

We had some amazingly talented local and international entertainment this year. Sound Concepts and Morely Productions did a fantastic job of keeping visitors and locals alike entertained.
