Parc Culturel Aimé Césaire
On the site of an ancient hospital, the Parc Floral Aimé Césaire is in the northeastern corner of the city center. After restorations parts of the park have reopened, as has the Grand Carbet theater. The park contains the island's official cultural center, where there are events that include beauty pageants and free evening concerts, especially during the International Festival or on memorial days. The live music is often jazz, classical music, and opera.
