Best Weekend Ever and St Ann business community expand partnership

The directors of event series Best Weekend Ever have expanded their partnership with the vibrant business community in St Ann. For the second consecutive year, season band holders will receive exclusive discounts at a wide range of adventures, bars, clubs, and restaurants in St Ann, from August 1 to August 11.

The event series, which is renowned for offering an exciting party experience, takes place from August 2-6 in Ocho Rios, St Ann. This year’s event promises to be even more spectacular with the addition of numerous local businesses providing exclusive benefits to attendees. Participating partners include: Dunn’s River Falls, Green Grotto Caves, Margaritaville, Plantation Smokehouse, Sharkies, 8Rivaz, Pearly Beach, Ocho Rios Bay Beach, Turtle River Park, Main Street Bistro, Omnia Sky Lounge and Boot Service Centre.

Jywanza Hall, director of Best Weekend Ever, expressed enthusiasm about the partnerships.“We are excited to collaborate with such a diverse group of local businesses in St Ann. This initiative not only enhances the experience for our attendees, but also supports the driving traffic to these establishments which serve locals and tourists daily. Our goal is to create a symbiotic relationship that benefits everyone involved, and we are proud to see the community come together to make this happen.”

The discounts offered to season band holders range from 10-20 per cent and this encourages event supporters to explore the diverse entertainment options while in St Ann. The proprietors of Dunn’s River Falls and Green Grotto Caves have extended their discount beyond season band holders and have guaranteed that anyone with a band on their hand, from any event within the weekend line-up, will receive an additional 10 per cent discount on their already discounted summer deals. In addition, Margaritaville is being touted as the official “after party” hotspot for Best Weekend Ever patrons, after Zimi Seh Beach on Sunday, August 4.

The events included on Best Weekend Ever are: I Love Soca Cooler Festival (August 2), at Plantation Cove; Daybreak and Milk and Honey on August 3, also at Plantation Cove; Zimi Seh Beach at Puerto Seco Beach on August 4; Rise and Toast at Plantation Cove on August 5, featuring Cham. Stalk Ashley will perform at Allure at Pearly Beach on August 5 while Rajah Wild and Valiant will close out the weekend at Late Check Out on August 6 at Pearly Beach.
