GOLDEN YEARS

In a region known for exhuberant celebrations, expectations are high for the Caribbean island of Grenada in 2024, when it will mark 50 years of independence from Britain on 7 February. Amid the fireworks, parades and costumes at the golden jubilee, the historic capital of St George's and its harbourfront Carenage promenade will become a stage for the country's homegrown music and dance styles - the official logo for the celebrations includes a traditional belair (or bèlè) dancer in a billowing skirt. The runup will also see a competition to find Grenada's calypso monarch, with participants judged on their singing and songwriting. grenadaturns50.gd
