Last update: 10 hours ago

Tourism Value Chain & Culture: Tourism Minister Edmund Bartlett says Jamaica’s tourism future hinges on financing people, not just properties, as he calls it “the Age of Resilience” amid climate shocks and new risks. Community Tourism & Local Earning: The Artisan Village Food Festival in Falmouth (Aug 6) is expanding opportunities for local creatives and culinary professionals, with Bartlett framing it as a way to deepen Jamaicans’ participation in the tourism value chain. Sports Tourism & Inclusion: Montego Bay will host the Special Olympics Caribbean Beach Games at Harmony Beach Park from Nov 18–22, drawing about 220 athletes across 20 countries. Wedding Tourism Boost: Sandals is rolling out a new destination-wedding push for Jamaica, including a free upgraded wedding package for qualifying 2027 weddings at its Montego Bay, Caribbean Cay and South Coast resorts. Air Access & Visitor Growth: Breeze Airways plans seven new international routes between Sept and Mar, including twice-weekly service from Tampa to Montego Bay starting Dec 19. Festival Return: Treasure Beach Food, Rum & Reggae Festival is back in Treasure Beach, St Elizabeth, Nov 6–8, 2026, with organizers also fulfilling a $1M commitment to support farmers after Hurricane Melissa. Hotel Brand Buzz: Meliá Hotels International ranks among the world’s strongest luxury hotel brands, while Sandals’ major Jamaica transformation continues.
