Caribbean Street Fest takes over Oaks Mall Gainesville — Saturday, August 22nd from 4PM to 8PM! 🇯🇲🇭🇹🇩🇴🇵🇷
One island ain't enough. We're bringing the WHOLE Caribbean to Newberry Road for a full evening of jerk smoke, soca beats, fire dancers, limbo lines, and flags repping every corner of the islands. Jerk chicken hitting different, curry goat for the real ones, festival and plantains stacked high, and island drinks keeping it cold while the drums keep it hot. 🔥
This isn;t just a food fest — it's a full street takeover. Reggae, soca, calypso, live drum circles, fire dances, and limbo low enough to make you question your back. Browse handmade crafts, island spices, art, candles, jewelry, seamoss, herbs, sweet treats, and boutique finds from vendors you didn't even know you needed.
🎟️ FREE to attend — bring the whole crew.
🎁 RSVP on the event page to win a $25 gift card to spend at the fest.
