Fun Ideas For Summer Festivals

Published

on

Summer gives us more opportunities to wear fun, eye-catching, and exciting combinations of clothes.  During the hot season, people can wear a wider variety of clothes, many of which are easily customizable. For people with an outgoing personality, summer is the perfect opportunity to show their fun clothing ideas at festivals and other events.

According to Printful, people often wear customized clothing at festivals. Customized clothing is popular at formal events, the office, or weddings. Personalized clothing does not fall under one category of clothing. It is diverse and can serve many purposes. That’s why wearing a customized t-shirt at a festival might be a fun idea, and wearing an embroidered t-shirt at a formal event can be classy.

At festivals, people with different tastes in clothes gather together. To have fun clothes that will bring a smile to the face of others will make the wearer the center of attention. Since the idea of fun is different for each individual, below is a list of some fun clothing ideas that might please everyone at summer festivals.

Printed Clothes

Printed clothes, especially printed t-shirts, can make people laugh and are eye-catching. Printed clothes offer a large variety of customization and the possibility for the wearer to express their personality. Many people prefer to customize their clothes instead of buying already printed garments.

The possibility of customization can transform a regular t-shirt into a stylish and trendy one. Puns are fun and will make people laugh when they recognize them. All you have to do is put your mind to work and create some nice prints.

Printed clothes don’t necessarily need phrases or words to be funny. Many people choose to print a scene from a TV show or a movie that is funny or memorable. Other more talented people can choose to print a photo they took of something to make their clothes even more unique. A funny photo of their pets or any situation that brings a smile is a plus for any festival outfit.

Wear a Funny Hat

Hats are among the main clothing worn during summer festivals. They are a must when a festival is outside in the hot sun. Also, summer festivals are in the middle of unpredictable summer weather. Wind or rain can start suddenly, and a cap or a hat will keep you protected.

Besides the practical uses a hat has, it can also be funny and make people laugh. Like T-shirts, hats can also be printed and customized. Prints need to be smaller, but this does not mean that they can’t be funny and original. Photos or funny images can be printed without problems, but you need to ensure that they are readable or understandable since they are smaller.

A suggestion for hats and caps is to have funny embroideries on them. A funny embroidered text will look better on a hat because it will be more easily seen. Embroideries don’t need to be text-only. A small animal or a funny situation will make people laugh as well.

Another perfect opportunity for hat and cap lovers that want to have funny outfits is to wear cosplay hats. Cosplay hats mean that in certain TV shows, movies, books, or animes, are characters that wear some funny hat or cap. Participants at festivals can wear the same type of cap as the character, and other people will recognize it and smile and appreciate it. These cosplay caps can also be customized to add a touch of originality that makes them funnier.

Accessories That Bring a Smile

Bags and purses are a good opportunity to come up with funny ideas for summer festivals. People shouldn’t go to a festival without any accessories. Mostly they need bags to keep their items safe. A funny purse idea is to have a purse in the shape of an animal. A sloth purse that hangs around your shoulders will make people smile and be curious. They will also want to have one.

Funny sunglasses are also a possibility. The glasses’ temples can have a comic form, or people can hang something funny on them. There are sunglasses in the shape of animals, objects, and plants. Another option is to wear glasses that make your eyes look bigger and funnier.

Antigua & Barbuda Welcomes More Canadians as Air Canada Adds New Flights

Published

on

St. John’s, Antigua The dual-island destination of Antigua & Barbuda is seeing an uptick in Canadian traffic just in time for the winter travel season. Beginning today, October 8th, a new offering of flights from Air Canada is expected to help realize a recovery to pre-pandemic airlift levels in the Canadian market.
The Air Canada flight arrived this afternoon carrying 106 passengers from Toronto and the aircraft was given a welcome back water cannon salute.  Passengers were also greeted by cultural dancers and music and small token welcome gifts.
“We are extremely pleased with Air Canada’s decision to both resume and increase service to our shores and look forward to extending our famous Antigua and Barbuda hospitality to our Canadian visitors,” said Colin James, Chief Executive Officer of The Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority. “We know many Canadians are more than ready for a vacation and we are equally ready to provide the relaxation and escape that Canadians have been craving.”
As noted, the rollout of the new service begins today with a single direct flight weekly from Toronto (YYZ) to St. John’s (ANU). Service will continue to ramp up to meet the traditional demand of the holiday season, with Air Canada forecasting the eventual operation of five weekly flights at peak traffic.
Travellers from Montreal looking to fly south for the winter can look forward to once-a-week direct flights (YUL to ANU) beginning December 23rd.
The return of Air Canada flights to Antigua & Barbuda comes in the wake of the destination’s latest travel advisory, which has lifted all COVID-19 restrictions for passengers arriving by air, yacht, and ferry. While a successful strategy of mass vaccinations and proactive public awareness campaigns has kept COVID-19 infection levels low, visitors are still encouraged to wear masks and practice social distancing in public spaces where crowds are likely to gather. You can read the latest travel advisory here.
“Over the course of the pandemic, Antigua and Barbuda has seen a monumental, joint effort involving both the government and industry stakeholders to make the destination as safe as it can be,” said Mr. James. “With that goal now realized and our Canadian friends set to return, we are extremely excited that our guests will once again be able to experience everything our home has to offer.”

Gambling Regulations In Canada And The Caribbean: What You Need To Know

Published

on

There are several trusted licensing authorities that oversee land-based and online gambling in the Caribbean, and in Canada, it’s all overseen in each province by the local provincial government. You also have the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, which is situated on an Indian land reserve in Quebec.

This trusted licensing authority is independent of Canada, and it’s part of the Kahnawake Mohawk Territory government. At one time, it was the licensing authority in the whole of North America, prior to US states regulating online casino gambling. Here is a look at gambling regulations in Canadian and the Caribbean and what you need to know as a player.

Are online casinos in Canada licensed by the Canadian government?

In Canada, gambling at online casinos is legal, and the gambling operator that’s based in that province must be licensed by the local provincial government’s licensing agency. For example, in Ontario, gambling is monitored and regulated by iGaming Ontario, which is a subsidiary of AGCO (Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario).

In other words, to legally operate an online casino in Ontario, an operator must have first obtained a license from iGaming Ontario. However, there’s still nothing stopping a foreign operator that’s based outside of Canadian borders from aiming their business toward Ontario citizens because they fall outside of Canadian jurisdiction. One of the other major licensing authorities that has issued licenses to hundreds of online casinos is the previously mentioned Kahnawake Gaming Commission.

Because the regulation and licensing of online casinos and other similar real money gambling sites is still relatively new in Canada, it’s why you will see that many of today’s best Ontario casino sites are licensed outside of Canada, by one or more other reputable licensing authorities, such as the UK Gambling Commission, the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority, or the Malta Gaming Authority.

How is online gambling regulated in the Caribbean?

There are several different gambling regulators/licensing authorities in the Caribbean, but these are often referred to as ‘rubber stamp’ licensing authorities. For example, you have the Directorate of Offshore Gaming in Antigua and Barbuda, the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority in the Anjouan and Comoros Islands, and the Curaçao Ministry of Justice in Curaçao (the former Netherlands Antilles).

While not all online casinos that have obtained a license from one of these authorities can be classed as ‘rogue casinos’, the best thing to do would be to stick to playing at the sites that are licensed either by a provincial Canadian government licensing authority or by one of the others mentioned above (e.g., by the UK Gambling Commission – one of the most trusted online gambling regulators in the world).

Why sign up to a casino that’s licensed by a provincial Canadian government or the Malta Gaming Authority?

These reputable authorities don’t just hand out a license to any old operator that has the cash to buy one. They heavily vet their licensees and carry out the necessary due diligence prior to issuing a license. They have the best legal framework in place, and they only license the most trusted operators. Should an issue arise at a casino that’s licensed in one of these jurisdictions (which is highly unlikely), you would have the proper legal backing that you, as a player, deserve. In other words, your complaint or issue will not go unanswered and will be resolved within a relatively short period of time.
