Get your tickets in advance: Cooler Fetes are very popular, so it's important to get your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. Check the Crop Over schedule, or get in touch with us for recommendations of quality Cooler Fetes, and buy your tickets early.
Dress to impress: Cooler Fetes are all about the party atmosphere, so be sure to dress in bright and colorful clothing. Think vibrant colors, pastel shades of coral and peach, classic black and white with pops of color in accessories or earthy tones like olive green and burnt orange. Be sure to be dress comfortably.
Do not forget your cooler: The whole idea of Cooler Fetes is that you bring your own cooler. Make sure you have a good cooler that will keep your drinks cold all night. Bring plenty of ice and pack it tightly to ensure that it stays cold. The cash you would have to spend on drinks otherwise adds up!
Bring your friends: Cooler Fetes are much more fun when you're with a group of friends. Invite your crew to come along and party with you.
To be honest there's a tendency for party goers to attend events generally a bit fashionably late. But it doesn't hurt to arrive in good time.
Pace yourself: Cooler Fetes can go on all night, so pace yourself when it comes to drinking. Always drink responsibly!
Wear comfortable shoes: Dancing all night can be tough on your feet, so wear comfortable shoes that you can dance in.
Stay hydrated: With all the dancing and drinking, it's important to stay hydrated. Bring plenty of water or sports drinks to keep yourself hydrated throughout the night.
Live in love: One thing about Crop Over atmosphere is that its a celebration of culture rooted in love. Be respectful of the people around you.
Enjoy yourself!
