Entertainment in Ocho Rios

  1. A

    Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville

    This corporate franchise has turned getting drunk into big business. As with its counterparts in Montego Bay and Negril, the music is too loud and the drinks are too expensive, but some people find the orchestrated good-time vibe to be irresistible. The menu aims for the lowest common denominator with selections including the artery-clogging ‘Cheeseburger in Paradise’ and Caesar salads, pizzas and sandwiches.

    Little Pub

    The touristy venue Little Pub is an old favorite, replete with sports TV and the occasional eclectic floor show to amuse you while you sit at the bar. A resident band plays here six nights per week. The live-entertainment schedule changes night by night, and includes an Afro-Caribbean musical, karaoke, and a weekly cabaret on Friday.

    Amnesia

    A classic Jamaican dancehall, this remains the happening scene. Theme nights include an oldies jam on Sunday, ladies night on Thursday and an after-work party on Friday. This is all leading up to Saturday’s dress-to-impress all-night dance marathon.

    Club Memories

    Whatever its memories, the club varies from night to night based on the evening’s theme. Thursday is ‘Ladies Nite, ’ and Sunday is oldies night. Happy hour is from 7pm to 9pm Friday. There’s a dress code.

    Roofe Club

    The gritty Roofe sends earth-shattering music across the roofs of town; it’s the place to get down and dirty with the latest dancehall moves. It can get rough.

    Strawberry Night Club
