Kalik, the beer of the Bahamas was proud to host and celebrate the achievements of the One Family Warriors, Colours and Roots Junkanoo groups. Kalik Junkanoo Victory Fest is an annual event held to celebrate the winners of Boxing Day and New Year’s Day parades in the A & B categories. Both A groups were rewarded with $2,000 cheques in addition to trophies for their victories. Kalik Junkanoo Victory Fest brings to an end the beer of the Bahamas’ Junkanoo Fan Fest series of events created to help support our Junkanoo community.

“Over the past several years, Kalik has made a significant impact on the development of Junkanoo, and in particular, the Roots organization. We are truly appreciative of what they have done to advance Junkanoo, and we are hopefully they will continue to make contributions towards the growth and culture of Junkanoo. On behalf of the management team and the group at large, we extend our most sincere gratitude”. Wendell Francis -Group Manager

“It’s events such as this, that helps in the continued survival of our most celebrated cultural event, Junkanoo. Kalik patronage has allowed all Junkanoo fans and participants to gather, socialize, and celebrate with each other. Kalik’s, Fan Fest and Victory Fest throughout the years has grown and stimulated the competitive spirit that is the driving force in the Junkanoo realm which is carried over and capitalized on Bay & Shirley Street. As a result of this support, the spirit of Junkanoo will linger for generations to come”. Christina Fernander – Chairman One Family Junkanoo Group.

“Kalik, just like Junkanoo is a staple in the Bahamas, we believe in the Bahamian people and the growth of the culture. Junkanoo has a rich history and a special place in every Bahamian heart. Therefore, we are always looking for opportunities to sponsor and enhance this iconic event.” Leslie Lopez Kalik Brand Rep.
