The objectives of TVK are as follows:

1. To highlight Dominica’s unique culture, food, dance and music.

3. To provide a space for visitors and residents to recreate and mingle during the day.

Event Format

Ti Vilaj Kwéyòl is a 4-day event which celebrates everything Dominican (food, drink, music, fashion, art, craft, culture, and tradition) in an ultimate and true Dominican style while promoting small businesses, entrepreneurship, quality, sustainability, and taste to patrons.  The event will also serve as a demonstration of a thoughtful showcase of innovation and progression of Agri-trade and tourism during Dominica’s biggest festive season.

The event will incorporate an assortment of daily themes in keeping with the “Ti Vilaj Kwéyòl! Tout Biten Domnik” campaign and will provide a platform for local artists to showcase their talent, as well as an opportunity to share and preserve seemingly endangered traditions, to a very large and diverse audience.
