A Lil Bit A Bim is the main annual fundraising event of the National Council of Barbadian Associations (NCBA), an umbrella organisation of Bajan groups in the UK. It provides an opportunity for people of all ages to socialise while enjoying music, cricket, food and culture of Barbados.
For many, the biggest draw on the day will be a guest appearance by celebrated Bajan calypsonian Red Plastic Bag (Stedson Wiltshire). Listen out for his classic hits such as Ragga Ragga, Boat Ride and Spontaneous, among others.
Other activities to expect include, line dancing, food stalls, children’s entertainment, carnival band and steelpan. There’ll also be a 20/20 cricket match between the host, Draycott Hanbury CC, and a Barbadian team plus a ‘shopping experience’ in a curated Barbadian marketplace.
This year event will be held on Sunday 5 June at Draycott & Hanbury Cricket Club, Hanbury Woodend, Burton-on-Trent DE13 8TH.
More details and tickets (adults £10, children £5) are available through Eventbrite.
