DAC After Hours: Reggae & Soca Carnival

The countdown to Carnival starts here!

After last year’s sold-out, unforgettable party, we’re bringing back one of our biggest and most-loved DAC After Hours events. If you were there, you already know. If you missed it… don’t make the same mistake twice!

Join us for a night of Reggae, Soca, Dancehall and Carnival Classics as DJ T21 takes over the decks, delivering nothing but infectious rhythms, non-stop energy and feel-good vibes to get you ready for Carnival weekend with the ultimate warm-up party.

Bring your flags, wear your colours and join the Carnival spirit as we celebrate the incredible music and cultures of the Caribbean and beyond.

Expect:
• 🎵The biggest Reggae, Soca, Dancehall & Carnival anthems
• 🍛Authentic Caribbean food available throughout the evening
• 🍹A fully stocked bar and our famous rum punch
• 💃🏾An electric atmosphere filled with Carnival energy

Whether you’re heading to Carnival or simply love great music and good vibes, this is the perfect way to kick off the celebrations.

With over 26 years behind the decks, DJ T21 has built a reputation as one of London’s most versatile and in-demand DJs. Since beginning his career in South London in 1998, he’s mastered the art of reading a crowd and keeping dancefloors packed.

From Reggae, Soca and Dancehall to R&B, Hip Hop, Afrobeats, UK Garage and more, he seamlessly blends genres to create unforgettable musical journeys spanning the ’90s, ‘00s and today’s biggest hits.
