The first ever one love Caribbean festival took place on Saturday at Orangutang’s Daiquiris and Bar in Gulfport.

The festival showcased Caribbean and Jamaican culture through different reggae bands from New Orleans, retail shopping and food vendors.
Event organizer Frank Selby says he hopes to expand the Caribbean and Jamaican market on the coast for those who live and love the culture.
Instead of taking a vacation to experience the Caribbean Islands, the festival hopes to bring that experience closer to the coast.

Event organizer Frank Selby says, “I’m going to make it happen, everyone that loves it, loves the food. Come out and support it. That’s what I’m trying to build, trying to bring, and I want everybody to enjoy it. We all love it, it doesn’t matter what race you are, one love that’s what its about. One love.”

The organizer of the festival plans to continue the festivities every year.
