Must Read

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.
