The highly anticipated Guyana Carnival 2024 is just around the corner, with the NOMADS Carnival Band returning home in promise of an unmatched celebration that will light up the streets of Georgetown on September 28 and 29.
Following a triumphant debut at the Brooklyn Labour Day Parade on earlier in September, where thousands of Guyanese in the diaspora came out to support, NOMADS is eager to bring the same energy and vibrancy back to its roots.
Under the visionary leadership of entertainment prodigy Marlon Jacobs, NOMADS made history as Guyana’s first band entry in the iconic Brooklyn celebration, representing the Freedom Entertainment brand.
The band’s participation in Brooklyn garnered overwhelming support not only from the Guyanese community abroad but also from a delegation sent by the Government of Guyana.
Their presence underscored the government’s commitment to promoting social cohesion and national pride, all while celebrating Guyana’s ingenuity on the international stage.
Building on this success, NOMADS is set to kick off an unforgettable carnival experience with the ‘Ultimate Cooler Fete’ at the Marriott Beach, featuring Jamaican dancehall sensation Kraff alongside local powerhouses like Calvin Burnett, Ckush, Lola Doll, and Charmaine Blackman, with more acts to be announced.
On September 29, carnival revellers can expect a vibrant cultural showcase as NOMADS takes to the streets with dynamic, all-inclusive packages. Attendees will enjoy dazzling body wear, exhilarating music, and an atmosphere designed to unite Guyanese from all walks of life, celebrating the richness of their heritage and culture. Those keen to join the festivities are encouraged to register now to be part of this historic event.
Marlon Jacobs continues to push the boundaries of entertainment tourism in Guyana. A young pioneer in the industry, Jacobs has overcome challenges, and his passion has established him as one of the nation’s most influential figures.
With a social media following exceeding 150,000, he has inspired countless young people to pursue their dreams, fostering a wave of change in both the entertainment and entrepreneurial sectors. His recent success at the Brooklyn parade marks another milestone in his innovative journey, rallying communities around a shared love for Guyanese culture.
As Jacobs prepares to bring NOMADS to the streets for the carnival parade, his mission is clear: to create unforgettable experiences and promote unity. “Carnival is more than just a celebration; it’s a chance to embrace our identity as resilient, diverse, and proud Guyanese.
Bringing NOMADS home is my way of giving back to the culture that has shaped me and inviting everyone to come together under the brand GUYANA,” Jacobs expressed.
The upcoming events, sponsored by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports, Pressy’s, and Magic City, mark a significant moment not only for the NOMADS Carnival Band but also in the broader narrative of Guyanese pride and unity.
