Air Seychelles: flying the creole spirit

The multilinqual crew of Air Seychelles will take care of you in an atmosphere reflecting the cultural and ethnic diversity of the islands. The meals served on board are inspired by recipes from the Seychelles, to give you a foretaste of the exotic Creole world you will be visiting... But creole culture does not only mean gastronomy. In the past, the creole culture used to be rejected by the elite. Today people all over the Indian Ocean and the Caribbean Sea take a pride in their creole culture.

Language, architecture, cuisine, music and art are the main components of the lively creole spirit.

For some years already, Air Seychelles continues to be one of the main sponsors of the creole spirit, promoting creole culture, especially the creole gastronomy (a wide choice of creole meals served all the year round on Air Seychelles flights) and the creole music (supporting Seychellois artists).

Air Seychelles "creole flavours"

Air Seychelles, in collaboration with some of the best Seychellois chefs, is proud to present you some excellent creole recipes. It will be easy for everybody to try them at home. Before taking off to the Seychelles or after your return, share some of the creole atmosphere with family and friends: the creole world is the kingdom of friendly mood and conviviality. Want to try it? rush into the kitchen!

Sing and dance with the musicians of the Seychelles!

Sounds of Seychelles
Soundscapes of the granitic islands
Concerts of wild animals, with birds, insects, frogs, bats and even giant tortoises; waves of the ocean that break on the pristine beaches, the wind and the drizzle in the giant palm leaves of the mythical Coco-de-mer, waterfalls and mountain streams.
All the sounds creating a natural Seychelles atmosphere at your home.

FESTIVAL KREOL

The FESTIVAL KREOL will take place as usual in October (26-31 OCT 2006). The creole festival is the main cultural event in the Seychelles.

The Festival Kreol takes its origins in the early 1980s when academics from Creole societies in the Indian Ocean and the Caribbean proposed that the 28th October be commemorated annually as an International Creole Day so as to raise awareness of Creole languages and cultures.
Seychelles have succeeded in weaving the various strands of its' diverse human and cultural heritage into a harmonious and fully integrated entity.

The Festival has posed its' mark as a vehicle for co-operation, particularly so in the field of culture, in the Indian Ocean and further afield, and seeks to bring Creole communities scattered around the world closer knitted.

The programme of the Festival covers a broad range of activities: conferences, poetry readings, musical and other artistic events, fashion shows, traditional games, special events for children, a street procession and special dinners offering the culinary delights of various Creole places world-wide.
