The New Year’s Junkanoo Rush is a vibrant celebration held every New Year’s Day. The streets of historic New Plymouth come alive with a colorful parade, featuring breathtaking sights and the lively sounds of traditional Bahamian music. Dressed in intricate, handmade costumes, participants showcase energetic dances, igniting the island with an electrifying atmosphere that pulses with excitement.
With regular ferry transfers from Treasure Cay, visitors can easily immerse themselves in the festivities, making it a perfect way to welcome the new year with an unforgettable cultural experience!
Visitors can conveniently purchase and manage their tickets through the ALIV Events app, available for both iOS and Android. This option eliminates the need for printed tickets and offers a seamless e-ticket experience. The app also provides seating guides and additional event information to help visitors plan their Junkanoo experience.
In-Person Purchases:
Tickets are available at select ALIV retail locations, including:
· Harbour Bay
· Cable Beach
· Marathon Mall
Early purchases are highly recommended, as prime seating areas like Rawson Square and near Scotiabank tend to sell out quickly.
Additional Tips for Visitors:
· Book early. Seating for popular areas often sells out, so plan ahead.
· Ask your hotel concierge. Many hotels offer assistance with ticket purchases or can help arrange packages that include tickets.
The Junkanoo parades are a must-see spectacle, offering a unique opportunity to experience Bahamian culture, music, and artistry up close. Let us know if you need any additional assistance planning your Junkanoo adventure!
