Best of Britain Village
Welcome!
Welcome to the Best of Britain Village.
Britain is comprised of four countries – England – Northern Ireland – Scotland and Wales with each having their own distinctive traditions. During 2012 Britain will hold the world Olympics in London (its capital) which will attract visitors from around the world.
It is known for its beautiful castles and cathedrals and is the birth place of William Shakespeare. The scenery from southern England to the highlands of Scotland is breathtaking. Britain has been described as an Emerald Isle set in a silver sea. It has one of the best known and well loved Royal Family in the world.
The Villages Festival started in 1974 and the following year we entered with the “Best of Britain” which has changed its name to “British Village”. Our entertainment at that time was “The Queens own Whistlers”; Bob Finlay; Beefeaters and the Vera Burkes Highland Dancers. Starting 37 years ago at the Ex-Imperial Building we are now at the Army, Navy, Air Force (ANAF) Club located at 645 Colborne Street. Want a Laugh? Enjoy the Patter? “Brit’s” or not – it doesn’t matter. Come out and enjoy the Hub – Bub!
