The 6th Caricom Festival was held at the spectacular Hackney Empire in the heart of the East End of London, it was a cultural celebration of a live musical showcase, comprising a host of International artists from around the globe such as Brazil, Grenada, Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad, Dominica, St Lucia, St Vincent, USA and the UK. The line up featured Caribbean Soca Dance hall queen

The first show in August 2000 hosted a successful showcase at the Ocean Music venue in Hackney. The headlining act of that night was The Mighty Diamonds who were supported by Tallpre and Rhydum Mix Cartel from Grenada, support artists included Winston Reedy, Toyin, Lorna Gee and Shavon Johnson.
Due to the success of the first show and public demand the event has now become an annual showcase, with every year continuing the cultural celebration to higher standards and platforms with flair and professionalism.
