The Jamaica Jazz & Blues Festival is held under the starry skies of Trelawny in Jamaica. Therefore, it is critical to be prepared. Here are a few tips to stay on track.
1. Be ready to have fun!
2 Walk with a blanket. Folding chairs or lounge chairs are a must.
3 Come early and secure a great parking spot and don’t miss any of the performances.
4 Do not leave your ticket!
5 Go to the ATM and get cash. You might want to sample the tasty treats on sale.
6 Do not walk with any weapons as they are not permitted on the grounds.
7 Secure hotel reservations in advance. Many hotels close to the venue and even five miles away are booked from as early as August – five months in advance.
8 The show starts at around 6 p.m. and ends in the wee hours of the morning. Comfortable shoes are essential. Wedge heels and stylish sandals are appropriate. Stilettos and grass do not mix, ladies.
9 The festival is held outdoors, and with the cool winds coming from the north, expect a bit of a chill. Therefore, be prepared by packing a shawl cardigan, jacket and/or sweater.
