Saba Day in NL - December 13

Today, the organizer of Saba Day in the Netherlands, Jayaira Windfield-de Groot, together with DJs Augustino Martin and Kevin Hassell, will travel to the Netherlands to bring the spirit of Saba Day to the Saban NL community.

Saba Day is a cherished tradition on the island, but its meaning extends far beyond its shores. Sabans live, work, and thrive around the world, and many have made the Netherlands their second home. Celebrating Saba Day abroad ensures that the values, culture, and identity of Saba remain alive within the community, no matter where they are.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Saba Day, a milestone that offers an important opportunity for reconnection. It allows Sabans to honor their heritage, share their stories, and celebrate the culture that has shaped generations.

When the community gathers to reflect on their roots and share traditions, it strengthens bonds and reinforces a powerful sense of belonging. Even thousands of kilometers away, these moments bring everyone one step closer to home.

Saba Day in the Netherlands is more than simply a celebration, but a tribute to identity, unity, and the enduring pride of the Saban people, wherever they may live.

Additionally, stakeholders and ministries that work together with Saba have been invited to partake, so they may also enjoy our culture and the joy Saba brings.
