Thousands of supporters gathered on Saturday night as the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) staged its “Red and Reddy” concert, days before voters go to the polls on 30 April.

The Rising Sun Grounds was filled with party supporters dressed in red, as the event blended entertainment with campaigning in the final stretch of the election race.

Performers included Masicka, Sizzla, Burning Flames, Destra Garcia, Asa Bantan, Claudette Peters and Tian Winter.

Supporters waved flags, sang and danced late into the night, with the concert doubling as a rally to build momentum for the governing party.

The event comes ahead of a planned island-wide “megacade”, with organisers expecting a large turnout of drivers in a final show of support before election day.

The activities form part of intensified campaigning by the ABLP, as parties make their closing appeals to voters.
