It’s Heroes Day in the Cayman Islands, the largest national celebration of heritage and culture in the Cayman Islands.
National Heroes Day was first held in 2003 as part of the Cayman Islands’ year long quincentennial celebrations and was always intended to be the islands’ largest national celebration. The devastation wrought by Hurricane Ivan in September 2004, thwarted subsequent plans to observe National Heroes Day in the proper manner until 2007.
