Attending a White Party in Cayo Coco, Cuba

A view of some of the units from our resort balcony




I am staying at a beautiful resort for a few days at Cayo Coco, Cuba








Mid- day dance performances by the professional resort dancers.





There are a lot of entertainment and activities happening at the resort.







A fashion show at the resort 





There are singing, dancing, fashion shows, games etc.













A White Party at the resort? That was interesting.
















I heard of White Party before but never attended one.
















Therefore, when I saw on the resort calendar that a White Party would be held on site during the time we were there.
















 I was excited and looked forward to attending the party.


A White Party is a party in which all or almost of its participants wear their clothing in white.













The White Party has its root in France and was brought to North America later on.

 In North America,  White Parties have taken place in Chicago, New York,  Palm Spring, Montreal etc. Hong Kong has held its annual White Party since the middle of 2000's.



















I never attended a White Party in North America, but was able to take in the performances of one in a Cuban resort.

The party started with a young lady dressed all in white playing a violin on the resort's terrace, followed by a parade of ladies dressed in white costumes.











All the performers were dressed in white as well as many of the people attending.

There were well choreographed dances to melodic beautiful dance songs. We watched as dancers all dressed in white performed their acts with passion and their own interpretation of the music.


It was beautiful sitting under the stars and enjoying the performances.
There was a dance afterwards too!
