On Friday March 26, downtown Fernandina Beach will sound like Amsterdam, Berlin, Cork Harbor in Ireland or Dijon in France.A once in a lifetime experience of Old World sounds blending into the gorgeous setting of the Fernandina Beach Marina, at Centre & Front Street. Right before sunset.
The Mobile Millennium Carillon, with 48 bronze bells, for a total weight of 26,000 lbs, will "sing" a variety of tunes, from classical to evergreens, thanks to Wylie Crawford, University Carillonneur at the University of Chicago, and President of the World Carillon Federation.
The one hour concert starts at 6:30 pm, and is free to the public. A limited number of complimentary chairs will be available. People are welcome to bring their own, and sit anywhere along the waterfront.
Close your eyes and let the bell sounds transport you to… wherever you like!
