Wray & Nephew has teamed up with a host of guests who have been inspired by the beautiful, unique nation of Jamaica - artists to be announced in the days before carnival via social media. This includes a heavy selection of artists and DJs who will be serving up sunshine sounds from the last six decades - to mark 60 years of Jamaican independence happening this year. Carnival-goers can sip on an authentic Jamaican Wray Rum Punch whilst enjoying a line-up of leading talent from Jamaica and beyond.
The Wray & Nephew stage at Emslie Horniman’s Pleasance Park will be the ultimate celebration of Jamaica's 60-year independence, and the island’s powerful contribution to music over the decades; from reggae and dancehall, through to its influence on British genres such as lovers’ rock, jungle, rap, garage and grime, ensuring there are sounds and beats for every Carnival-goer to enjoy.
Matthew Phillip, CEO of Notting Hill Carnival Ltd, said:
“Through its own history and culture, Wray & Nephew Rum has always felt part of the Notting Hill Carnival and so we’re delighted to have them as an official partner as they celebrate 60 years of Jamaica. Their presence at the Emslie Horniman Pleasance Park stage will certainly capture what Carnival is all about - music, celebration, and community”
