Yeh man Torontolime will keep you informed of 'All things Caribbean' around the world.

But with regard to Jamaica....... ah eh goin back there....had a bad experience once.....ah ring meh ears.....never again.

By the way, for those not going to Jamaica for this event (namely ME), you can check out the entire Jamaican Carnival via a daily 'video blog' on torontolime.com (they did the same thing for T&T Carnival).

Dem price sound pretty good considering the price for a si,ilar show in T&T for Carnival.
With conversion those tix range from about TT$125-280.

Plus, Jamaica eh ha no EMA tellin yuh de fete too loud. And dey doh close no 4 o'clock. Fete in JA does be still goin on mid morning.

1998 I spent a week in Seaforth, St. James. Imagine Monday morning about half past ten me and mih pahdner bounce up three of his friends now comin from a beach fete we leave since about 3 o'clock! (Sunday is de big fete night in JA)
