The fun started with a Soca concert, Jouvert and fete dubbed “Splashamani” the night before Guyana’s 54th Republic Day Holiday. This Soca extravaganza saw the biggest names in Soca – Yung Bredda, Olatunji, Problem Child, AW Lyrical, Calvin Burnette, Timeka Marshall, Diana Chapman and Omaiah Hall sharing one stage.

The event’s success was evident in the overwhelming turnout and the enthusiastic response from attendees, paving a way for it to be a staple in the Mashramani celebrations.
Following Mashramani celebrations, patrons headed back to the National Stadium for a night of Dancehall, which featured a diverse lineup of performers that offered something for everyone.
The Jamaican Dancehall artistes- Brysco, Rajah Wild, Kraff, Nigey Boy and Dovey Magnum left a lasting impression on the Guyanese crowd, with their performances.
Surprise artiste and producer- Rvssian, lighted up the stage as he sang his most popular hits and even closed the show with a medley of the “Dutty Money Riddim”- which many have described as the perfect way to end the show.
