Events!

It has been great fun bringing you the Event's page. It started slowly as "For Your Diary" and grew to become the most sought-after source of information on entertainment and events. But don't despair, with the closing of the Panama Star, the information will be on Newsroom starting on Saturday Oct. 3, backed up by news and features on the arts and entertainment scene. For information email news@newsroompanama.com. See you there. Caroline
