Discovery Bay, St. Ann:- The Directors of the Destination Event Series, Best Weekend Ever (BWE), are aware of videos circulating on social media depicting altercations involving patrons at our beach event on August 9.

Best Weekend Ever has never condoned, and we abhor the proliferation of violence of any kind at our events. We are extremely disappointed and sincerely regret that this unfortunate and isolated situation has occurred. We have contacted the family of those affected and the individuals involved in the altercation have been clearly identified, and the relevant actions will be pursued by the designated authority.

Over the years, BWE has established a strong track record of providing safe, well-managed entertainment experiences for thousands of patrons. The safety and security of our guests remain a priority, and this incident is not reflective of the culture of Best Weekend Ever or the experience we work diligently to provide.

We also wish to clarify, contrary to some narratives circulating; the MC brought attention to the incident to allow the appropriate intervention to take place and we have made our team available to the relevant authorities to assist in the process of ensuring this does not reoccur.

Throughout the staging of Best Weekend Ever 2026, our events have been enjoyed safely by thousands of patrons with improved traffic management and movement between events. We are also grateful for the positive feedback from patrons which is an indication of the high level of satisfaction with the production of the event series.  Additional security measures have been put in place for the final event being staged today. We thank our patrons, partners, security teams and stakeholders for their support as we continue to remain committed to delivering an environment where everyone can celebrate responsibly and safely.
