Why people love it

A standout slice of Barbados

The Bridgetown street where Rihanna grew up — officially renamed in 2017 — plus the wider Westbury neighbourhood that shaped her.

What to expect

The experience, end to end

In 2017 Westbury New Road was renamed Rihanna Drive to honour Barbados' most famous daughter, who was named a National Hero in 2021.

The street itself is residential and quiet, but the surrounding St.

Michael neighbourhood is a meaningful pilgrimage for fans — best combined with a wider Bridgetown walk, a stop at Combermere School, and a look at the murals around the city.
