Negril’s party scene is set to explode in colour, energy, and music this Saturday, October 4, as Painted Reloaded returns to Long Bay Beach Park. Dubbed the largest paint-party in Jamaica, the event promises a high-octane mix of music, water, foam, powder, paint, and premium mixed drinks.
Now in its fourteenth year, Painted Reloaded has become a fixture on Negril’s entertainment calendar. This year, organizers are raising the stakes with a live performance by fast-rising dancehall star Kraff, whose energetic stage presence and unique sound are expected to thrill partygoers.
The event’s organizers say Painted Reloaded also seeks to reaffirm Negril’s reputation as a top party destination following the recent loss of a major Jamaican party series. “Our goal is to create world-class experiences that excite patrons while giving back to the Negril economy,” said Glenton Roe, a member of the organizing committee. “We want visitors to come, have fun, and support local businesses. While the event has been held in Montego Bay and Kingston, Negril is now its permanent home.”
The entertainment lineup features DJs Heavy D Chromatic, Brush 1, Fyahman, A-Team, and Fresh Unit, promising non-stop dancing with seamless mixes and high-energy sets.
Organizers say the event is more than just a party—it’s a full sensory experience. Attendees are encouraged to get creative with the 2,000 gallons of paint on hand, contributing to the festival’s vibrant spectacle. With thousands expected to attend, Painted Reloaded is anticipated to provide a significant boost to Negril’s hotels, restaurants, and local businesses.
