The ultimate Easter Sunday Berbice beach fete
El Parabel…
Waterfalls Magazine – Every April around the festive Easter weekend, there is one beach fete that Berbicians are geared up and ready for the El Parabel Beach Fete. The fete was introduced to Berbice by CAJ Manny Entertainment and was a hit from its first year.
The fete is held annually at the Belladrum Beach in West Coast Berbice and always has a vibrant theme. Due to the Hawaiian theme, patrons came decked in attire with lots of flowers and bright colours.
Headed through the gate after paying a fee of $1000, over the canal patrons were greeted with the cool sea breeze and the briny scent of the ocean. The VIP section was elevated from the regular section and to enter, it was fairly simple. If they paid for a table package, they enjoyed the fete in a less crowded manner, with the added bonus of bottle service and hookahs.
To the left of the VIP was a cocktail station, where for the price of $1500 some of the best and strong mixed drinks were available for those who knew how to handle their liquor. On the other hand, for those who preferred the lighter beverages, there was a bar that catered to all their needs with very courteous staff.
The DK line up did not disappoint as there were various sound systems passing through to keep the crowd vibing. From Junglist Sound System, DJ Jordan and Selector Chucky brought the soca vibes and the crowd gyrated to a fusion of Trinidadian and St. Lucian beats. Slingers then brought the ‘bad man’ side of things with the dancehall music, dropping tracks from trending Jamaican artistes like Skeng, Valiant and Kraff.
The fete lasted all night and into the wee hours of the morning ended off with some slow jams and soul music. It was the perfect ending to a good evening. At the party closed off, patrons slowly filtered out of the venue, the promoters thanked those in attendance and encouraged them to come again next year. (Anasa Williams)
