This year the Queen’s Birthday Party will be held at Government House on Thursday, 20 April between 6 and 8 pm.  The Governor invites anyone interested in attending this event to complete the online entry form, the link for which can be found on the Government House website and FaceBook page.  The link will be active from noon on Tuesday, 28 February until noon on Friday, 10 March 2017.

Government House first opened up the process for obtaining an invitation to the Queen’s Birthday Party in 2015 and the enthusiastic response received from the general public over the last two years was a deciding factor in the return of the process for this year’s event.

The Governor said:  “My predecessors, George and Margaret Fergusson, were instrumental in opening up the Queen’s Birthday Party to a far wider range of the community than in previous years.  I am keen to carry on this new tradition. 

Government House is again inviting anyone who would like to attend this year’s Queen Birthday Party to complete the online entry form.  Sadly, the numbers can’t be unlimited but we shall make a good proportion of invitations available to those applying.  This will be an occasion to celebrate Her Majesty’s Birthday and to enjoy the Gardens of Government House and the Band of the Bermuda Regiment

I am very much looking forward to this, my first Queen’s Birthday Party in Bermuda.”
