The last week of the much anticipated Linden Town Week will culminate this weekend, with some exciting events to thrill Lindeners and the hundreds who are expected to travel up to the mining town.
The action gets underway today with the “Bikers Fest”, hosted by Vybz Entertainment at Northern Burnham Drive, with a display of stunts by members of the Sonic Hunter Bikerz Group and the Linden Highway Rippers.
For the children, there will also be a display by the BMX Boys and Skateboard Kids. This will definitely add some excitement to the event.

As the place gets darker, all roads will lead to the Christiansburg Hard Court for “Colour Fete” which will feature top deejays out of Georgetown and Linden, including Gully Ras and Selector Diamond; two of the most versatile men on the console.
