The tone was set for dancing at the Cool Thursday Vibes retro party, held recently at Di Endz Bar and Gaming Lounge, 17 Waterhouse Drive in Patrick City, Kingston.

Musical genius Collin Hines took the stage, transporting the crowd back in time with his captivating beats and retro vibes. The atmosphere was nostalgic, with partygoers dressed in their favorite retro outfits, dancing and singing along to the iconic tunes. Colin Hines’ performance was mesmerising, showcasing his incredible talent and passion for music. As the night wore on, the energy only intensified, with everyone lost in the music and the moment.

With its infectious energy and nostalgic charm, the party was a must-attend event for anyone who loves retro music and good vibes.

Kipson, the promoter of Cool Thursday Vibes was pleased with the outcome of the event.

“The feedback from patrons has been overwhelmingly positive. Since its start, people have been saying they enjoy the lively atmosphere, the quality music, and most of all the drink deals that make the event affordable and fun,” he said.

He added: “Many see it as a great way to unwind after work on a Thursday, and it has already developed a regular crowd that looks forward to it each week. Patrons also like that it feels like a community space where they can link up with friends, relax, and enjoy themselves.”

The event had its inception last November and is now a calendar event.

According to Kipson since its inception the event has continued to grow in popularity. Over the months it has built a loyal following, with more and more patrons attending each week. By keeping it consistent every Thursday, the event has become a fixture in the community and something that people can count on to kick off their weekend vibes early.

“The main idea of the event is to provide a weekly Thursday experience where people can come together to enjoy good music, socialise, and take advantage of the drink specials in a safe and enjoyable environment. It’s designed to give patrons a mid-week break—something to look forward to that’s not too heavy but still full of energy. By combining music, good vibes, and affordable drink deals, the event keeps the tradition of Thursday link-ups alive and makes it a space where everyone feels welcome,” he said.

Anna-Lisa Guthrie named creative director of Yard Mas Carnival 2026

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Yard Mas Carnival has officially announced Anna-Lisa Guthrie as its creative director for the 2026 carnival season.

The announcement comes ahead of the official band launch set for late November 2025, which the company says “promises to reveal a new era of design depth, inclusivity and artistry for the Yard Mas brand”.

In a statement, Yard Mas described Guthrie as a multidisciplinary creative celebrated for her innovative approach to costume design and storytelling through art.

Guthrie has already made a name for herself on social media showcasing her design skills in building outfits from different materials that have gone viral across multiple platforms.

Managing Director Andrew Bellamy expressed confidence in the band’s choice.

“Yard Mas has always prided itself in empowering Jamaicans, especially those who excel within our local creative industry. Anna-Lisa’s rise in the design world has been impressive, consistent and remarkable. I’ve worked with her in the past when she just entered the carnival design space," he said.

Bellamy continued, "Undoubtedly, Anna’s work has gone viral multiple times both locally and internationally, mainly because of her innovation that connects deeply and resonates with people and our culture; similarly to how Yard Mas connects with our masqueraders. We are proud and confident that her creative direction will guide and ‘wow’ our 2026 theme, and without a doubt, her personal designs will also excite and satisfy masqueraders”.

Already in full creation mode, Guthrie shared, “Art has always been my language — it’s how I translate emotion, culture and identity into visual form. What Yard Mas has built in such a short time is nothing short of extraordinary — a community connected by creativity, culture, pride and vibes. I designed for the band for the first time this year, but I’ve worked with the members in various capacities in the past, and I can’t wait for the ‘yardies’ to see what our slate of designers have created for 2026!”

Public Relations Director Dania Beckford revealed that the 2026 theme will be released in short order with a hybrid launch that epitomises Caribbean art and design translated into mas.
