Chepstow's Upcycle centre gets Caribbean makeover
The Upcycle team invite you to a lively evening of music, food, and community celebration, starting at 6pm. Entry is free and everyone is welcome. The event takes place at the bottom of town, near the rail station.
With a Caribbean flair setting the scene, Upcycle is thrilled to welcome back Tom Cocktails, serving freshly made-to-order drinks with a tropical twist. The licensed bar will be open, offering wines, prosecco, beers, ciders, and spirits to enjoy while relaxing outdoors.
Live music comes courtesy of Palm Tree Antics, a vibrant band bringing island-inspired rhythm to Chepstow. The courtyard will be buzzing with flavours, as food vendors serve up an array of sweet and spicy delights.
Spice Up the Valleys, led by chef Michael Hamilton, returns with his crowd-pleasing Caribbean street food, including rich curry goat and authentic jerk chicken. Chateau Bonbon will offer sweets and treats, and Hope's Home Bakes tempts you with homemade cakes.
Families are welcome, with a shaded children's play area available, and dogs are invited too. The main Upcycle unit will be open for browsing and purchases during the event.
Suzie Williams, Upcycle's promo boss, said: 'It'll be a great night, don't miss it. Special thanks to all the volunteers and performers who make it happen.'
She especially extended her thanks to Michael Hamilton for sharing his culinary talents with Chepstow and the Upcycle team. 'His passion shines through in every bite,' she added.
