Belize Intl' Film Festival White Night in San Pedro

For the first time in their five year run, the Belize International Film Festival made it to San Pedro, possible only because of the new Paradise Theater at the Reef Village which was inaugurated late last year. A special White Night was celebrated in San Pedro with a red carpet entrance, movie screening and an after party for those who attended. Here are the highlight in pictures and you can read all about the White Night in this week's edition of Ambergris Today Newspaper, out on Thursday!

Lorrie Morgan at Paradise Theater

Lorrie Morgan presented two fabulous shows at the Paradise Theater this week. Located at Reef Village, the Paradise Theater opened its doors during its inaugural week to country superstar Lorrie Morgan who was very well received by a large San Pedro audience at both shows.

Attractive North Ambergris Caye

Much development is still taking place on the northern part of the island, with new resorts and condos going up and many upgrading their facilities to compete with the new ones. Immediately crossing the bridge you will notice the large billboard sign that has been erected at the foot of the bridge. It's another of Ramon's Village's decorative signs that are going up around the island as part of their new marketing campaign.

And this beautifully colored building is Reef Village's new Paradise Theatre, not yet open to the public but clearly visible from across the bridge.
