The town of Sainte-Marie, birthplace of the Saint-James plantation and rum, celebrates the end of the sugar cane harvest every year. Rum tastings, shows, artists' exhibitions, musical evenings and craft stands selling jewellery and clothing are all part of the program. For the occasion, rare bottles of rum and old vintages can be sold. To be consumed with moderation, of course. The event takes place at the seaside.

Dominica became independent from Great Britain on November 3, 1978. Every year on this date, festivities take place all over the island over a four-week period. The festivities feature a wide range of cultural activities, including gastronomy, dance and traditional music. It's also an opportunity to showcase the country's diverse cultural influences, with bèlè, an African dance, and quadrille and waltz from Europe rubbing shoulders. The traditional Wob Dwiyet dress is worn.

This day is a public holiday to commemorate the abolition of slavery. Although the abolition decree in Paris dates from April 27, 1848, it was not applied until the news was officially received in each colony (May 22 in Martinique, May 27 in Guadeloupe and June 10 in French Guiana). The 87,000 slaves in Guadeloupe were not considered free until May 27, 1848. Commemorations are held everywhere, notably at the Delgrès fort in Basse-Terre and the Fleur d'épée fort in Gosier. Administrations and supermarkets are closed all day.
