What would you recommend for first-timers?
Start the morning with a good breakfast (lots of carbs to soak up the rum).
Keep hydrated, drink lots of water throughout the day. We recommend a bottle of water for every 3 alcoholic drinks.
Wear comfortable footwear. We don’t recommend wearing a new pair on the day of the Parade.
Don’t wander off alone, stay with friends on the road within the security ropes.
You have the freedom to enhance your costume but leave valuables at home. Don’t carry unnecessary items. No flashy expensive jewellery, no excessive amount of money, etc. The band is all-inclusive you don't need money!
Don’t forget sunblock, the sun can be unforgiving. (Minimum SPF 30 recommended).
Things to carry: hairpins, safety pins, body tape, camera phone discreetly placed on your person, portable phone charger.
LISTEN to the security teams’ instructions, they're there to keep you safe.
You may not give drinks to persons on the road as your armband will be removed if found doing this
Most important FETE! Have fun but drink responsibly.
