Bermuda Summer Fridays

Every Friday, Happy Hour at Aurora at Newstead Belmont Hills Resort brings a lively waterfront vibe overlooking the Hamilton harbour. Guests can unwind with a fresh seafood bar menu, featuring ocean-to-table bites that highlight local catch and seasonal ingredients, alongside craft cocktails and chilled drinks.

Getting there is part of the experience too. There's a convenient water shuttle running every 30 minutes, making it easy to arrive and depart in style while taking in the harbour views.

As the sun sets, the atmosphere shifts into full weekend mode with DJ Mike Shawr spinning feel-good tracks, turning the space into a relaxed but energetic Friday evening destination perfect for kicking off the weekend.

The Corporation of St. George's is thrilled to invite visitors to explore the unique history and culture of the Town of St. George.

Ordnance Island, in the heart of the town, serves as the perfect starting point to begin exploring the town's historic sites. From the Bermuda National Trust Museum to the Towne Hall from 1797, visitors can explore the numerous colonial-era buildings that are located in close proximity to Ordnance Island. The Towne Hall, in particular, is a notable landmark of the bustling centre of the town and is a must-see for all visitors to St. George's. Along the waterfront is a replica ducking stool which is the site of reenactments in colonial costume.

For California-based Bermudian artist Soleé Darrell, painting is a deeply present, almost ritual practice rooted in intuitive colour. Working on stretched silk velvet with powdered pigment dye—applied by hand, brush, or poured in fluid gestures—her abstract works echo the vivid hues of Bermuda and memories of home. With only about 30 minutes before the pigment dries, speed and spontaneity are essential, grounding her in the moment as colours shift unpredictably. For Darrell, art is both creative and sacred; her kaleidoscopic works invite meditation, reflection, and a sense of connection to nature, spirit, and one another.

On display through to October. Exhibition curated by Eve Godet Thomas. With support from Nekeisha Cameron, Faye Cook, Jasmine DeSilva, Chen Foley, Deborah Jackson, Sylvia Jones, Delight Morris, Megan & Roddy Nesbitt, Susan Pateras, Dennis Pimentel, Alexia Seymour Crofton, Michelle Seymour Smith, Bill & Georgia Wharton and Desiree Wingo.
