Highlights of the ship’s visit will be the ‘English Café’ which will happen on the 7 and 20 September. Here you will have the chance to step into a café of colours and general extravaganza for the youth and adults alike. You will have the opportunity to mingle and chat with English speakers from around the world, while enjoying cultural items, music and stories that will take your breath away. Tickets will be available on board for Rs. 500 per person. In addition we are having a number of other events for you to come and enjoy.
In addition to the public events offered on board Logos Hope, crewmembers will take part in various practical service projects in Colombo and the surrounding suburbs. One of these projects includes a team working on a house building project in Galle. This entails demolishing the old house and cultivating a garden in its place.
Logos Hope offers an expanded selection of over 5,000 titles at affordable prices. They cover a range of subjects including science, sports, hobbies, and family life. With children’s titles, academic texts, dictionaries, atlases and more, the book fair is something the whole family can enjoy. Additionally, the rest of the Visitor Experience deck is also open for the public to explore. From the Welcome Area, which introduces the new vessel through a short movie and interactive introduction, to the International Café, which has ice cream, drinks and snacks for sale, there is sure to be something for everyone.
