Blustery Opinions From Bermuda

Bermuda Music Festival

November 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Tourism

The Spin Doctor says “The Bermuda Music Festival is an event designed to entice visitors to our shores. The talent line-up for this year’s Bermuda Music Festival gave a spectacular performance, leaving the audience wanting more, while paying tribute to one of music’s living legends, Quincy Jones. This was a music festival to remember. ”

The BMF was fun, oh indeed.  Top dollar.

But we also know that it was an unmitigated failure at attracting visitors to our island.  Again.  And don’t even try to spin the “buzz” angle!

In my opinion, the BMF … along with its peer boondoggles the PGA, the Love Festival, and the ADHT conference … exemplifies the political tinkering, self-interest, and distraction that has left Bermuda’s tourism sector as a ruined economic basket-case.
