The allure of the early morning sun and the Soca-fueled, water-soaked breakfast party returns to Chaguaramas this weekend as the eighth edition of the ever popular “iUP” event takes place this Sunday morning from 3 am.


“We want to welcome all our loyal iUP patrons back to the fun combination of Soca, Water and Sunrise,” said iUP Logistics Engineer, Shawn Wong.” He said the event will be staged at an all new venue on the eastern side of the spacious Five Islands Water park, explaining that this would allow patrons to greet the sun, enjoy the water safely with a lot of Soca to keep patrons in motion.


Bunji Garlin will be headlining the cast with strategic support coming from the Voice of the next generation, Aaron St Louis. Additionally, Nailah Blackman along with St Vincent’s Skinny Fabulous, as well as Shal Marshall, are booked to bring the vibes. Also making up the cast will be Viking Ding Dong, Sekon Sta and Jaiga.


“We always assemble a stellar cast to entertain the iUP faithful,” said iUp Conceptualizer, Benny Hatem. “This year, as we return from two years of lockdown and curfews, we wanted to ensure that we created a soundtrack that would help to release all the built-up tension and stress,” said Hatem. Water, a staple to iUP, the Boss, Neil Iwer George has been contracted to do what he does best. “I always up and I always bring the energy to wake the people up,” said the artist. “Whether they need water or beer, I am bringing both to iUP, so the people can stay hydrated and join me in a true Soca sunrise celebration.”


Secure parking will be available for all patrons at Pier II , with just a short walk over the bridge to the iUP venue. There’ll also be breakfast on sale inside the venue, along with ice, chasers and your favorite drinks should coolers run dry.

Though weary, family and friends, along with Damian ‘Ace’ Oliverie himself, will not give up on the prospects of a bright and happy future. Now diagnosed with Multiple myeloma – a cancer of the body’s plasma cells, a type of white blood cells charged with producing antibodies- the well-loved Trinidad and Tobago entertainer, husband and father, will require chemotherapy and constant treatment for the rest of his life. 

Oliverie was rushed to hospital on the morning of March 2nd. Initially, a diagnosis had not been confirmed, however a surgical procedure to decompress his spine had been accomplished. His wife has explained that since the surgery, he has been receiving continued treatment and requires round the clock care. “In recent weeks Damian has been plagued by a number of infections and complications, but he is strong and we are faithful,” said Kizzy. 

Unwavering in spirit, many in the entertainment industry have pledged their support to the artiste’s recovery. On June 14th, they will gather as one to raise funds for Damian’s medical expenses and his continued healthcare. Recovery The Concert will take place at WASA’s St. Joseph grounds with patrons being asked to contribute $200 to attend and experience the music of reggae, soca and dancehall artistes from both Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica. The event starts at 7pm and will go until 12am with all proceeds going towards Damian’s healthcare. “Although the initial surgery addressed the spinal issue, doctors have advised that there is still a great deal of treatment necessary,” said Mrs. Oliverie. 

Tickets for the Recovery Concert are available online at islandetickets.com and the list of physical ticket outlet locations can be viewed @recovery_the_concert on Instagram. “We are extremely grateful for the outpouring of love, prayer and support received,” said Kizzy, adding that assistance offered in any way, is appreciated. “Tomorrow is not promised to any of us. This has ultimately shaken our family to the core, but we will get through it with God and the support of our village. We are grateful to you all,” she said.
