Jamaican-born, US-based events promoter and radio personality Mikey Sparkle, recently received a Georgia Resolution Award from the Caribbean American Chamber of Commerce of Georgia for his role in business.

The award was presented to Sparkle by the president of the Caribbean American Chamber of Commerce of Georgia Jackie Pommells Watson, during the Georgia Caribbean American Day event which took place at the Georgia State Capital on June 7.

Sparkle, who has been living in Georgia since 1999, owns and operates several businesses in Atlanta including Mikey Sparkle Productions, Sparkle Auto Care, Mikey Sparkle Radio, and Sparkle B’s Restaurant and Lounge.

“I feel honored to be recognized by the Caribbean American Chamber of Commerce for my work as a businessperson in Georgia. I’m profoundly grateful for this award. I am also grateful to the Most High for giving me the drive and inspiration to work hard, and to make a positive impact on my community,” he said.

Over the past 10 years,  Sparkle has built a sparkling reputation as an events promoter, staging several popular annual events in Georgia, including the Mikey Sparkle Family Fun Day, the Mikey Sparkle Christmas Party, and the Merritone Family Fun Day.
He has also staged several popular Jamaican roots plays in Georgia, including Divorce Court, Guilty With Explanation, Crazy But True, and Frenemy.

“Events promotion is a high-risk business. Sometimes you do everything right from start to finish to produce a good event but end up not making a profit. Despite that I’ve continued promoting events because I am dedicated to promoting Jamaican culture in the US and I love to see people having fun and enjoying themselves,” he said.

Sparkle is currently gearing up for the 13th staging of his annual Caribbean Family Fun Day.

The event, which is free of cost for children, is set to take place at the City of Lithonia Amphitheater in Georgia on Sunday, June 16.

The event will feature performances from a number of artistes, including Ras Fraser, Chenco, Jah Max, Maxine Lions, Sir Alexander, Anthony Mattai, DJ Super Pec, Imar Shepherd, MC Wayne Hall and Propa English.
