presentation
The Hôtel de la Marine invites you to a kreyol ball in partnership with the Fondation pour la Mémoire de l'esclavage.
The Difé Kako company is taking over the monument's main courtyard for a festive event based around 19th-century Caribbean dances and their heritage!
Visitors can watch demonstrations of Creole quadrilles, haute-taille and mazurkas performed by 50 dancers and 10 musicians, and join in with members of the company in participatory dances.
