Waterfalls

Probable

A banqueting facility at 160 Hope Road in Liguanea that opens to the public as a nightclub on Thursdays for an older crowd: reggae, calypso and hip hop from the 1960s through 1980s, with the Merritone Disco sound and a cover charge that includes complimentary soup. One of the few Kingston venues that still holds the feel of a 1960s dancehall. Also runs an all-inclusive Sunday brunch with live Jamaican-flavoured jazz. Still operating.

Story · Well supportedJamaica's nightclub circuit

Not every Jamaican dance happened under the sky. From 1930s society clubs to Portmore's dancehall rooms, some of it happened behind a cover charge, a bar and a roof.
