RumFest at Wall Street Plaza September 18

Now this is an event Capt. Jack Sparrow would love.

On Saturday, September 18, Wall Street Plaza is holding their sixth annual RumFest downtown.  From 5pm until 8pm, only $20 gets you in and gets you unlimited rum drinks.

Adding to the Caribbean atmosphere (as if unlimited rum wouldn’t get you in the mood), WSP is bringing in Reggae artists Inner Circle. Their most famous song is “Bad Boys” (the theme from the TV show “Cops”), but their laid back island sound will have you jammin’ in no time.

Tickets can be bought in advance at WallStPlaza.net, and it’s advised that you don’t wait to get them at the door because they may be sold out.

Following the event will be the weekly block party.
