  Fire Eater Most of the larger hotels put on some form of entertainment for their guests in the evenings during the peak season months of November to April. This could take the form of Fire Eaters or large African Dance Troups. This may be reduced to just a single Kora player, whilst you eat or relax in the bar during the off-peak months of May to October.
Nevertheless, if you get the chance to see bicycle man, he's a must. Not only is he legendary in The Gambia, but you will be absolutely amazed at what he can do on a bike!

Out and about, there is an expanding number of bars and nightclubs most of which play live music throughout the week. Bakau has live entertainment nightly from 10pm onwards. Live acts include Sampu Susu (traditional Mandinka music), The Holly Family (reggae), Five Star Band (reggae) and Fula Acrobats (dance troupe). Our favourite band, by far, is the Batin International Band, who play popular West African music.
