Jamaican artists arrive for concert
Belize City ah run red this weekend, thanks to Jamaica’s Fifth Element. That’s right, the all star line-up, including Richie Spice, Chuck Fender, Spanna Banna, and Anthony Cruz hits the city tomorrow morning for what promoters say will be a show-stopping performance at the Belize City Centre on Saturday night. Following their arrival, the group will participate in a motorcade through the city streets, which will end at the Putt Putt Bar and Grill. The band’s promoters and managers have been in Belize for the past week doing the legwork for the show and say they are hoping for an overwhelming response from the Belizean public.
