Saturdays spotlight live performances across Caribbean, Afrobeat and global genres. On Sundays, wind down with a lineup of smooth, ever-changing jazz bands, plus the interactive Ti Ayiti Drum Circles on Sunday afternoons. The next Ti Ayiti Drum Circle takes place on Sunday, October 26 from 3 to 6pm.
