The only good thing is the food. Music was way too low. Waste of money. Bought 3 tickets on day of event totalling 213. Was really excited to see Ding Dong. Felt like it was just like lemme sing and few songs real quick and leave. The whole vibe was prep school fair. Very disappointing.

Very disappointed with the heavy base sound in the music. Calypso is a lovely music, excellent Trini Calypsonian, but could not catch any vibe as the sound was off. I am thinking they restricted how loud the music gets played. So tired of going to Caribbean festivals and the sound is low and off. Constant talking from the MC. Could have played music as the band was setting up instead on constant talking. I wonder why when there is a rock concert the music is not restricted. Just saying. Basically $45 plus $20 parking was too much to pay. Not worth it. This was not a good experience. Vendors were gracious and food was good so rating it a one. If I could rate it a zero, I would.

They advertise a price on the website starting at $45 and when you click to purchase tickets they were $60 ..false advertising. The parking was ridiculous, workers just standing where the cars have to drive through. Not worth the price..need better management.

Way too expensive!! $20 for pkg, regular admission $50/per person which included nothing, VIP admission was $150 per person which included unlimited food & drink... ticket booth could not confirm whether alcohol was included...drove all the way fm Ft. Lauderdale, very disappointing!!

LUST killed it???. Great food options?Neg..poor overall production (poor sound quality - band changes were long with no music/entertainment - only 1 jumbo screen which showed ads during the performances (except for Shaggy's)).

Better parking organization needed with persons actually directing attendees on where to park and also signage / guidance for VIP ticket holders on VIP parking. Better gate admission experience needed. If you buy a VIP ticket why do you then have to go to a next line to get the VIP band and get the drink tickets from a person in the VIP area itself? Better “VIP” experience needed. While the section had some tables and chairs, GA attendees were able to come into the same tented area for a nominal fee and cotch. ONE bar in the “VIP”. Had to stand in line for a drink for 45 mins!! Why NO Jamaican rum??? Foolishness! Props to the man working at the 1 bar for his patience. “All inclusive” food in “VIP”....no gloves, masks or even hair coverings worn by persons serving the food. One veg dish which was tasty, the saltfish in the ackee + saltfish dish needed to soak!!! All now I’m still parched! No steam veg, salad, soup.... not a slice of hard dough bread, festival, fried dumpling, plantain, ground provisions.... Since when is rice and peas made with chicken in it??? I was told that the j*** chicken was good. More garbage containers and recycling bins needed throughout the grounds!!!The sound production was not good! There was no music during set changes which makes no sense.The artistes were all excellent! They brought the vibes, energy and professionalism. ???? They saved the event.
Brought a $20 sampler, the sampler consisted of j*** ice cream and meatball, of which I didn’t eat any, seems like the meatballs were sitting in the sun for hours, recommendation to organizer, either state what customers are getting for their money or provide a larger variety of food to choose from. Was disappointed that I wasted $20

There was a deal on Groupon, purchase two tickets there, followed the instructions to register my tickets and was also charged on Eventbrite. The organizer has declined my refund. I paid for the tickets twice. I followed the instructions.
