The Moorings Hotel offers a ‘Black Magic Cultural Night’

Visitors to Port Vila, Vanuatu beware – black magic is alive in the city! The Moorings Hotel has just launched their Melanesian Cultural Night featuring a black Magic demonstration by a real-life ‘kleva’. The 30 minute black magic show is the feature act of the Melanesian night show & buffet which also includes kava tasting (yes – it really does taste like dirty water), talks on Melanesian cultural traditions from the hotel staff and a sumptuous traditionally prepared Melanesian buffet.

Guests are asked to arrive at 6pm but get there early to be treated to a spectacular sunset over the Port Vila harbour from the hotel deck. Kava tasting is first off, with the full effect of the kava kicking in around the same time as the black magic show begins. Guests shouldn’t expect to see expensive production values with lots of smoke and mirrors but the simplicity of the show and the raw performance by the genuine practitioners of this ancient craft will have the hair standing up on the back of your neck. What many overseas visitors don’t realise is that black magic is still very much alive and practised in Vanuatu – both for good and for evil uses. This is the real deal.

The concept is the initiative of the The Moorings Hotel staff and they are genuinely proud of their heritage and values. The Moorings Hotel Melanesian night is great value too at only 2,500 vatu per person and is operated every Wednesday night. Bookings are essential as spaces are limited and preference is given to guests staying at The Moorings Hotel.
