As we mentioned in our 2012 Calendar we are hearing about a few things brewing for 2012, the diversity and new events really shows that Crop Over is really growing, option after option! Here's what's happening Crop Over week and what is on next weekend.
Scorch Breakfast Party – Crop Over Sunday (a.m.)
As I
will be missing Scorch Cruise this year (can’t make it to Bliss on the same
day) people have been trying to get me to consider this new event.
Styled on breakfast parties in Trinidad, it is supposed to be an all-inclusive. I’d
much prefer to go Island Mas’ breakfast party
but will see what I hear.
Shhh…remember the first rule of Scorch is YOU DON’T TALK ABOUT SCORCH!

over sized coolers 4. No glass bottles 5. No fashion fcuk ups 6. No sloppy
bodies 7. No Drama 8. No sour vibes 9. No ticket No Entry 10. No List 11. No
Comps 12. No visa face.
Lush Cooler Party - Crop Over Wednesday
Who are the people behind this? Your guess is as good as mine, I'm always wary of new things without knowing if those behind it have put on an event of scale before, but hey. They invite you to bring your cooler and party while enjoying the "stunning vistas of the expansive, picturesque gardens" of a "West Coast Villa" Tickets come out this month, and are $50 BDS / $25 US.
Sunset by SUV Boyz – Crop Over Thursday
I am
very happy as this event is normally held the week before Crop Over, when a lot
of non-Bajans do not get a chance to experience it as they aren’t in yet.
In
past years, the event has gone from a buy your own drinks do, to an all-inclusive
last year, all at the lovely Lion Castle Polo club. Looks like it is back to the a-la-cate option this year. A 5 star hotel
will be the venue, with the menu options including sushi and other delicacies. Tickets are $50 BDS / $25 US. Stay tuned to us for details as they come. As the new ‘Rize’ all inclusive event is the same day, I’m loving that we have
options, finally!
Brewsters Road - 15 June
Launches
their season at Kensington Oval with an event called ‘Reset the Heartbeat’. Lil Rick, Nard, John Mohammed and Dutty Android(!) – can’t tell you
how much I’d like to see this man perform live, will be there. Admission
is $25 BDS, I support them making this a pay event, may keep out some of the
crazies, and honestly the quality of Brewsters is such that it really is worth
the money. 2 for 1 drinks specials should make this worthwhile. They’ve said to
“Dress crazy, come out crazy because we are going Soca Insane”. Oh dear.
Pork Lime - 15 June
The first
for the season, Pork lime, Pork lime, Pork lime, so good they had to
repeat it! You should know what you’re getting here, nufffff pork and live
performances (they never say who is coming) and most importantly, it’s FREE! The
highlight to look out for is that this is the first time Contact Band shows their costumes
in public, even though the band house has been open for a week and frontlines
already sold out. They look amazing, really Contact has stepped up the game
this year by getting new designers in.
