The nine 2017 Bula queen contestants were given a five star experience at the Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay yesterday.

Resort general manager Silvano Dressino used the opportunity to showcase the property.

“With the new five star property in Nadi, we thought why not showcase it to the queens of Nadi who are advocates this week?” Mr Dressino said.

Trustee of Bula Festival Trust Sushila Rameshwar thanked the management and staff of Marriott for accommodating them.

“Marriott is one place that we really admire and the lunch we had here is wonderful along with the dessert,” Ms Rameshwar said.

“The beautiful resort is breath-taking.”

Ms Rameshwar confirms that the festival resumes today at Prince Charles Park with the baby show starting at 7am and rounding off at 11am.

“We encourage mothers to bring their babies and get registered and take part in the Baby Show sponsored by Johnson & Johnson.”

Priscilla Night will be the highlight of the Bula Festival tonight.

“If you really want to laugh, do come and enjoy what the festival has to offer,” she said.

Ms Rameshwar said crowd support has been overwhelming.

“Bula is really going well and we are looking forward to the crowning night on Saturday.”
