Summer Vibes in Heritage Quay: A Celebration of Local Culture, Creative Arts and Commerce

25 Jun 2025

Heritage Quay at Antigua Cruise Port is more than a historic duty-free shopping plaza – it’s a lively hub where culture, community, and creativity meet.

This summer, the plaza transforms into a vibrant stage for local artisans, with engaging pop-up events, sip & paint sessions, and spirited domino matches – all celebrating the best of Antiguan and Barbudan talent.

Meanwhile, construction continues on the new Antigua Cruise Port upland development. Set to feature a modern cruise terminal, stylish day club with cabanas and pool, along with an expanded shopping village that will welcome over 800,000 guests annually to a reimagined island experience.

So, whether you’re admiring Gormie the Artist’s live portraits or exploring handcrafted jewelry by Macra Miche, every visit promises unique local treasures and unforgettable moments.

The vibrant spirit of this twin-island paradise comes alive at Heritage Quay – Come for the Shopping, Stay for the Vibes!
