Musical artists and performers will be heading to the Grand Lucayan, in Grand Bahama, November 11-12 for the Inaugural Grand Lucayan Celebrity Weekend. The event, a two-night concert weekend filled with fun, poker, philanthropy, fabulous food, beautiful beaches and friendly people promises to draw fun seekers from near and far.
The resort which was recently re-named, is hosting the first of a series of lavish entertainment events and organizers are planning to roll out the red carpet for this much anticipated event.
The Grand Lucayan Celebrity Weekend kicks off on Friday night with a ribbon cutting ceremony followed by a cocktail reception and dinner show.  The concert line-up includes American Idol's fan favorites from Season 9, Didi Benami and Tim Urban, (whose EP Heart of Me was released on iTunes last year) with a headliner performance by America's Got Talent sensation, Prince Poppycock.
Saturday's fun begins with a charity poker tournament (www.pokergives.org ) at the Treasure Bay Casino and then the evening's musical line-up presents another memorable American Idol, beatboxer, Blake Lewis.  The featured performer is famed Las Vegas crowd-pleaser and headliner, Clint Holmes, accompanied by musical director, Jeffrey Neiman.
"We are thrilled to host such a wonderful group of musical performers and special guests here at Grand Lucayan, Bahamas," says Ben Davis, general manager.  "We're very proud of this resort and look forward to treating everyone like a celebrity this weekend."
Tickets for the two-night gala event start at $50 and go up to $75 for VIP, which includes reserved seating and a private celebrity meet and greet with the featured performers.  Tickets will be sold at the resort during the event.
