WHAT HAPPENS AT LENT, STAYS AT LENT
Last day revealed disappointment of visitors about the festival coming to an end. But according to the colourful programme of the last day of the festival, we are only taking a long break to build up our strength again.
The combination of green city park, beer and vitamin juices invited people to visit Art Camp venue and see the traditional carnival of performers. Colourful faces of children convinced many adults to paint their faces too. All were interested to see the performance of De Propere Fanfare and their bleating sheep. After the sun decided to hide, street performers continued their way to Lent, accompanied by numerous visitors, music and positive energy.
At the Main stage, Lucky Peterson playfully scolded one of the visitors that couldn’t catch the rhythm of the clapping. "Are you still with me? Do you like blues? Soul? R & B? Rock'n'roll? Gospel?” offered Lucky. He didn’t stay on the stage long, but joined the audience, chatted with the visitors and flirted with the ladies.
The 20th anniversary of the festival was well celebrated at Jazzlent that was shaking to the rhythms of Skatelites. The venue was filled with positive energy, dancing and singing that lasted till the morning light. After the colourful fireworks filled the night sky, the unofficial crazy part of the celebration began and lasted until the next day.
Since Lent has many mottos, including 'What happens at Lent, stays at Lent,” it is time to take a break and start preparing for next year!
