Antigua’s 2026/27 Season Is Starting: Restaurants and Island Experiences

Planning an Antigua holiday for the 2026/27 season? October brings new dates to put in your diary as restaurants announce their return and island venues release their programmes. Here are two opening announcements to help you plan meals and experiences, alongside a practical checklist for arranging your stay.

Information checked on 14 October 2026. Always confirm current opening times, availability and booking conditions directly with the venue before making plans.

Slates: an October opening announcement

The official Slates website announces an opening date of 7 October. Its current events page also presents regular dining occasions, including a music night, a midweek date night, Saturday brunch and Sunday roast.

Use the restaurant’s own website to check the menu and confirm the day you would like to visit. An opening announcement is a useful starting point, but it does not guarantee that every event or service is available on your holiday dates.

The Hut Little Jumby: Season 3 opening party

The Hut Little Jumby has announced its Season 3 opening party for 17 October 2026. The official programme includes live music and DJs, with drummers, dancers and Arturo Tappin among the announced entertainment. The ticket description includes a welcome drink and canapés.

Visit The Hut Little Jumby’s official events page for the current programme and its booking link. Confirm ticket availability and the arrangements for reaching Little Jumby directly with the venue. Tickets and transport are separate from an accommodation booking with Antigua Residence.

Plan around your own holiday dates

You do not need to build every day around an event. Choose the outings that matter most to you, then leave time for the house, the beach and a slower day between activities. If a particular dinner or celebration is central to the trip, check it before settling your itinerary.

• Check the date, start time and venue on the organiser’s current website.
• Ask whether you need a table reservation, an event ticket or both.
• Confirm transport arrangements and the return journey, especially for an island venue.
• Check cancellation terms and what is included in the booking.
• Recheck the programme shortly before travelling, as details can change.

Choose your base at Antigua Residence

Our homes at Nonsuch Bay offer two different settings for your Antigua stay. Explore Unit 1102, the Beach Cottage, or discover Unit 1512, with pool and sea views. Their individual pages show the accommodation, photographs and information to help you compare them.

When choosing, start with the number of guests, the spaces you need and the dates of your trip. Avoid assuming that an event venue is within walking distance of your accommodation: plan the journey separately and check local arrangements before going.

Ask about your 2026/27 stay

Send us your preferred arrival and departure dates and the number of guests. If you have an event or restaurant visit in mind, mention it when making your enquiry. We will confirm accommodation availability and the applicable booking conditions for your requested stay.

Contact Antigua Residence about your holiday dates.
