Summer Sizzle BVI returning after 2-year COVID hiatus
Calling the experience one that will be ‘Epic’, the event is scheduled to take place July 20 – 25, 2022, according to event organisers.
“The British Virgin Islands is the perfect getaway to relax, relate, and release given what we have collectively experienced over the last two years with the COVID19 pandemic. We have an opportunity to convene and uplift each other in the celebration of fashion, lifestyle, and culture while rejuvenating our body, mind and souls” stated Terry T. Donovan, Founder and CEO of Summer Sizzle BVI.
“We look forward to welcoming visitors to the BVI and to boost our tourism economy, showcase our beauty and culture, and celebrating fashion, arts and music,” he added.
The event’s fashion, lifestyle, and wellness experience will showcase local and international fashion designers, with the highly anticipated Global Glamour Runway Show expected to be the highlight of the event.
