Several grand events will remain. One of these is the National Heroes Day Observance, which is celebrated on September 16 every year and is a commemorative event where the National Heroes of St. Kitts and Nevis are honoured for their pioneering spirit and enormous contribution to nation-building. The Independence State Service slated for September 13 at the Warner Park Cricket Stadium is also a grand event on the calendar, as well as the Prime Minister’s Lecture Series which was held on September 09.

Several other activities will be carried virtually, including the Drill Competition on September 25; Elocution Contest on October 07 and a Night of the Performing Arts featuring dances, songs and instrumentals on October 17.

The Independence Fiesta Virtual Concert kicked off on the night of September 04 with performances from Rootz Gospel Band, Blestina Charles, J’nysis Band, Shekinah Dance Ministry, Brotherhood Drummers and more. There were also special tributes to calypsonians King Meeko, King Ayatollah and King Starshield.

This year, residents are encouraged to showcase their patriotism by using the four designated patriotic colour days. September 11 is set aside for green; September 14 for yellow; the 15 of September for Black; the 17 for white, while red should be worn on September 18. On Independence Day, September 19, all the colours can be worn.
