The grand return of Miami Carnival did not disappoint as carnival revellers flocked to Broward County for the mas experience of a lifetime.

For the winners of Smirnoff Miami Carnival Experience winner, Natalie Ross, the unforgettable adventure was a dream come true. Following a send-off at AC Hotel on October 7th, Caribbean Airlines flew Ross and her friend, Lisa-Marie Fowler to Miami, Florida where they spent an all-expense-paid weekend courtesy of Smirnoff.

The two Jamaican women enjoyed Twisted, an all-white party affair, featuring Grammy Award-winning act Burna Boy, which also included performances by Jamaican artiste, Teejay and Trinidadian soca-legend, Machel Montano. The following day, the ladies enjoyed thrilling live performances from soca artistes, Iwer George, Skinny Banton, and Tallpree at J’ouvert Mas.

The weekend finally came to a close at Carnival when the women donned their ‘Dragonaires’ costumes, designed by Jamaican Jessica Campbell to pay homage to the legendary Byron Lee. It was an epic experience from beginning to end!
