NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS — On Friday, October 30, the sprawling grounds of Nassau’s Radio House transformed into a whimsical Halloween haven, as hundreds of creatively costumed local children and their caregivers gathered for the long-running annual Radio House Kids Trick-or-Treat Party, hosted by the city’s top three local radio stations: 100 JAMZ, Y98.7 FM, and KISS 96.1 FM. Crafted as a low-risk, family-focused alternative to unregulated neighborhood trick-or-treating, the four-hour afternoon gathering brimmed with seasonal cheer, upbeat live music, and piles of candy and festive giveaways tailored for young attendees. Young guests arrived in a dazzling range of costumes, from pint-sized superheroes and storybook princesses to clever homemade spooky ensembles, and got to enjoy a full lineup of curated activities: themed photo stations framed by custom Halloween backdrops designed by local creative studio Illustrative Artistry, elaborate festive balloon installations from event specialist The Party Parlour, live stage performances, and a rotating schedule of interactive games run entirely by the Radio House in-house promotions team. Handel “Reality” Sands, Marketing and Promotions Director for Radio House, emphasized that community investment is the core mission uniting all three of the network’s broadcast brands. “There is no greater reward than watching the pure joy light up on a child’s face when they show off their custom costume, or leave the event with a bag full of treats and a pocket full of happy memories,” Sands shared. “This annual tradition is our way of giving back to the generations of loyal listeners and their families who have supported our stations for decades, and none of this year’s seamless, record-turnout event would have been possible without the incredible commitment of our local corporate sponsors.” The 2024 iteration of the beloved community event was fully funded and supported by a coalition of 15 local Bahamian businesses: PartyMania, Thompson Trading, The Party Parlour, Domino’s, Everything Cup-Cake, Illustrative Artistry, Lickety Split & Fun Foods, Tings by Cookie, Ever Rest Funeral Home, Mario M & M Wholesale, Unique Arts, BWA, Island Wholesale, C.O. Entertainment, and AML Foods.
