The super all-inclusive party of the season, Os.mo.sis Evolution, held at The Stables, Caymanas Estate, on Friday, December 18, can be summed up in two words: super fabulous! Organisers, Mad Circle, outdid themselves and took the party to new heights. It was red carpet treatment non-stop, from the welcome drinks to the photo opportunities (Hollywood style), the relaxing lounge areas to the snazzy dance floor. And speaking of dance floor, the first-class event showcased a multi-level dance area with two catwalks running across the floor. The VIP area, Cabana City, took on a classier look and feel.
Two of the hottest nightclubs, Kingston's Pure/Plush and Montego Bay's Blue Beat, also joined in to offer an extraordinary party experience. Patrons got a chance to enjoy both clubs' signature cocktails and Smirnoff-laced desserts. Also, this time around, patrons could relax in the lounge area and be served meals or drinks of their choice.
Unlike some parties which claim to be all-inclusive but the food runs out before midnight, this has never been the case at Os.mo.sis. There was food galore, courtesy of 15 of Kingston's top restaurants, not to mention drinks, as there were several bars, and patrons had no qualms about how much they consumed. DJ Rush and Jazzy T kept the party going with the latest dance tunes, and even when the rain started the party did not stop, and people enjoyed themselves just the same.
Brand name
Jermaine Brown, one of the organisers, told Outlook that Os.mo.sis has evolved from a pool party, into a brand name that everyone could identify with. He was thankful that the party went well and that patrons enjoyed themselves.
"Last time, we got this nice venue and one of the largest crowds but some things did not go according to plan, so we were disappointed. But this time, everything fell into place and we are pleased," said Brown.
Some of those out to party were Don Creary, Chris Hardy, Garth Walker, Charmaine Wright, P.J. Wright, Renée Wong, Scott Dunn, Adrienne Genus, Roberta Stewart, James Robertson, Ann-Merita Golding, entertainer Alaine, Lindsay McDonald, Tamika Fullerton-Delisser, Jeremy Owen, Richard Bair, Kamal Bankay and Kellie Brown.
