25 Years of The Mask! Event Returns to South Florida October 25

What would Halloween in South Florida be without some Caribbean flavor. That is what Mask has delivered over the years and promises to continue on October 25 at the Sport Of Kings venue at Gulfstream Racetrack in Hallandale, South Florida.

“This year marks a monumental milestone, 25 years of The Mask! To celebrate this quarter-century legacy, we proudly present The Masked Performer Edition, featuring a special birthday celebration for reggae recording artist Gyptian. Expect loud electric rhythms, pulsating energy, and bodies moving to the beat inside the exclusive Sport of Kings venue at Gulfstream Park,” said Jaime Young, one of the co-founders of Mask.

Gyptian, best known for the hit singles, Hold Yuh and Serious Times, will celebrate his 42nd birthday on October 25.

Typical of the season, patrons get to let their hair down by donning outrageous costumes. That, and copious amounts of dancehall, reggae, soca and calypso music have helped make Mask a calendar gig on South Florida’s Caribbean entertainment scene.

Veteran sound system selector Delano of Renaissance, Selecta Renegade, DJ Nicco 876, DJ LS One, and Nocturnal Sound with Papa Keith will provide music throughout the evening.

Young, a Jamaican, has promoted high-profile events in South Florida since the mid-1990s. Stages Miami, Naked, French Reserve, Truckstop and Foam Wet Fete are some of the shows he has been associated with.
