the world’s best artists are excited about performing live in the Turks & Caicos Islands then it inures a spectacular event. “When you have international and legendary performers like Lionel Richie, LL Cool J and Anita Baker as part of this year’s lineup, then it only enhances our reputation as being the most fabulous destinations in the world.

The 2008 Music and Cultural Festival will expose the world to the unique culture and heritage of the Turks & Caicos Islands and brings the panache of some of the world’s biggest musical stars to help promote cross-cultural experiences and makes the Festival the biggest and best special event in the TCI.
The 2008 lineup will be the best one ever as it brings together international superstars, top performers from Turks & Caicos, and musical legends from across the Caribbean and insures that there is something for everyone, regardless of age, gender or musical taste.
The Tourist Board has worked hard to attract international superstars from a wide genre of music to come and perform at this year’s Festival.
And, when you mix in the great cultural slate of events, including The 2008 Miss Turks & Caicos pageant, it becomes the must do event of the year in Turks and Caicos and perhaps more importantly, becomes the anchor event in promoting Turks & Caicos as the premiere destination for international travelers.
Ralph Higgs, Director of Tourism of The Turks & Caicos Tourist Board, is pleased with the diverse range of performers set to perform at this year’s festival.
“When you mix musical legends like with the talents of today’s superstars, it further showcases the rich diversity of music and culture in our Festival, which, of course, corresponds to the tenets of our Music and Cultural Festival.”
Mr. Higgs adds that “There is definitely something for everyone on every night, and we are projecting record numbers of attendance for this year’s festival. I am also very impressed with the success of our comedy night.
When you bring talented comedians and story tellers from around the world to Providenciales, then it is an angle that further differentiates our Festival and our country from that of all others. We know the TCI is unique and with the wide range of performers at the Festival, then it further cements our brand positioning as a unique place to visit in the international marketplace.”
Now in its 5th year, the Annual Music and Cultural festival is seen as the largest and most popular entertainment event of the year in Turks and Caicos, the scheduled line up includes four nights of great live music and concerts, a boat regatta and cultural events that make it a week long series of events that is sure to please even the most discerning tastes.
For the second year in a row, this year’s festival is being produced by TurnKey Productions. Walter Elmore, the President of TurnKey productions, is excited to be working again on the Turks & Caicos Festival. “I love the TCI!
This is one of the world’s most stunning places to be and by bringing in musical superstars to experience the charm and beauty of the islands brings tremendous publicity and international attention for the country.” Mr. Elmore adds “Turn Key Productions has produced some of the world’s biggest live music events in the world. It is obvious that the Turks & Caicos Music and Cultural Festival is now one of the top five Festivals in the entire world, and I am excited in producing a world-class event in a fabulous world-class destination!”
He also recognizes that this event could never be produced without a great partnership with a world-class tourist board that keeps everything running smoothly and helps to oversee all of the details. “To produce a great show, one that everyone enjoys and takes pride and ownership in, is the end result of working with a world-class Tourist Board.”
The Annual Music and Cultural Festival is staged by The Turks and Caicos Tourist Board and is now celebrating its fifth anniversary.
The beauty of The Turtle Cove Marina in Providenciales provides the breath-taking backdrop for the event, that now attracts well over 10,000 patrons to the Festival.
