Date: September 10th
History: St. George's Caye Day commemorates the Battle of St. George's Caye, which occurred between September 3rd and 10th, 1798. This battle was a defining moment in Belizean history where the British Baymen, along with their African slaves, repelled a Spanish attempt to expel them and assert control over the area. The British victory ensured that Belize would become a British colony rather than a Spanish one.
Traditions and Celebrations:
St. George's Caye Day is both a national holiday and an important symbol of Belizean heritage and identity. It brings together communities to celebrate their history of resilience and independence.
