Steel Away: A Caribbean Christmas
Dec 22, 2024
Starting: 4:30 PM
Gather oceanside at 4:30 PM for a festive Caribbean-inspired holiday concert at Lummus Park. For the Sunday, December 22 installment, Steel Away, featuring steel drummer Kobie Alleyne, brings a vibrant take on holiday music to the Ocean Drive Promenade Music. Presented by the Ocean Drive Association, this free, weekly outdoor concert series invites guests to gather on the lawn between 14th Street and 14th Place for a blend of island sounds and holiday cheer.
Kobie Alleyne, a skilled Caribbean-American musician and steel pan performer, infuses his music with diverse influences from reggae and jazz to classical and gospel. A Berklee College of Music graduate and recipient of a Presidential Scholarship, Alleyne grew up in a musical family and now brings his versatile talents to audiences across the region.
The Ocean Drive Promenade Music Series takes place every Sunday and is free and open to the public. Attendees are encouraged to bring a blanket or lawn chair to enjoy the performance, with The Betsy Hotel serving as the rainy-day location.
