On Saturday July 29th, Sesame Carnival, one of New York’s largest mas bands in Brooklyn’s annual Labor Day Parade launches their Queens-based mas camp. The mas camp is the central location where costumes are assembled. This year their mas camp will be hosted by the VP Records retail store (170-19 Jamaica Ave) in Queens, New York.
From 1-5pm, revellers can drop by, meet the team who designed the costumes and place their order on site. Hosted by DJ REDD, revellers will hear the sounds from Soca Gold 2023, the soundtrack for the jump up on the Parkway aka Labor Day Parade.
The theme for this year’s costumes is called ‘Destinations – The Arrival.’
