Event professionals are pleased they have been permitted to stage fetes and other outdoor events.

And although not all promoters will be ready to stage events by New Year’s Eve, president of the Entertainment Association of Barbados (EAB), Rudy Maloney, said the sector would be working closely together to help their colleagues.

“We are glad for the start because we have to start somewhere. Things will not be like before but we are willing to see how we can approach events and Crop Over.

“However, I and some of the other producers had that discussion and some of us will definitely not be doing events and will not be ready. Some others, however, will try and we will see how it goes, but everyone in the industry is willing to assist each other to try to make things happen,” Maloney said. (MB)
