Trinidad and Tobago: Tobago Mango Festival is all set to take place on June 16 at the Botanical Gardens, Scarborough. The event will be held from 10 am to 7 pm and will feature a number of mango-fused events and activities. Being held under the unique theme of 'Mango Fusion – A Culinary Experience', the theme paints a picture of the festival where mangoes will take centre stage, and their versatility will create a beautiful harmony across culinary boundaries.

While encouraging everyone to participate, the organisers said that the fusion word in the theme of the festival suggests a complex and delightful interplay of flavours, which gives a hint at the diverse range of mango dishes which visitors can expect.

In addition to this, they also said that the event will boast cultural connection and added that fusion resonates with Tobago's rich musical heritage, creating a link between the island's culture and its culinary scene.

Also, the Culinary Adventure emphasises the unique potential of the island's mangoes to create a truly remarkable culinary experience.

The Tobago Mango Festival is a family-friendly and vibrant agri-tourism adventure unlike any other. It is held every year on Father's Day. On the day, the island will be transformed into a tropical playground celebrating Tobago's legendary mango heritage.

The festival strives to provide a unique and memorable experience for families and mango enthusiasts while also boosting tourism and the agricultural sector.

The event is more than just a festival as it creates lasting memories for families while the mango enthusiasts become ambassadors as they spread the word about the island's exquisite mangoes along with the passion of its farmers.

The festival also gives the local vendors and farmers to sell their produce to a huge number of visitors, giving them the opportunity to get the right price for their hard work while engaging in a fun family event on the island of Tobago.
