Eleuthera Pineapple Festival Returns: The island’s signature celebration is back June 5–6 in Gregory Town for its 37th year, honoring Eleuthera’s pineapple roots with local food, culture, and growers like “Lady Di” Thompson. PLP Victory Locks In Another Term: Prime Minister Philip Davis and the Progressive Liberal Party won a landslide for a second consecutive mandate, with CARICOM observers saying the May 12 election was peaceful and orderly. Arts & Culture Abroad: Two Bahamian artists—Amaani Hepburn and Keith Thompson—were selected for fully funded residencies in Florence, Italy, for cultural exchange and hands-on training. Music Scene Spotlight: Ilsha Francis pushes her “Cut Up” single as a playful, Bahamian-rooted escape—while Eurovision 2026 buzz leans into a darker, geopolitics-shaped storyline. Finance Sector Moves: A new Bahamas Institute of Forex and CFD Issuers (BIFCI) launches to unify licensed firms around standards and transparency. Quick Hits: A Carnival cruise onboard brawl led to federal charges for two women; and a new Baha Mar sports push brings an NCAA volleyball Paradise Invitational in September.
