Monday, 02 June 2008


The landscape of entertainment in Grenada changed with the advent of Q West Promotions in May of 1998.  Over the next ten years the bar of quality was raised on several occasions through the hosting of a plethora of events that have become the standard against which all entertainment entities are measured.

Over the past ten years Q West Promotions has completely revolutionized the entire entertainment scene elevating the quality of events through the provision of superior event management, production and Artistes selection. Also noteworthy is the variety of events put on by Q West Promotions; from mega concerts to club events to boat rides and from St. Andrew, to St. John to St. George Q West has brought its special brand of entertainment to Grenadians.

It is also very imperative to note the economic impact and trickle-down effect of the investments of Q West  Promotions. From vendors to security to transportation providers to our sponsors the value of a Q West event is far-reaching. Additionally, Q West Promotions has made charitable financial donations to the Dorothy Hopkin and Queen Elizabeth homes and several individuals seeking medical assistance in one form or the other.

To mark the special occasion, on Wednesday May 21st Q West Promotions made a financial donation to the Grenada Kidney Patient Foundation. Accepting the donation on behalf of The Foundation was Mrs. Heather Sylvester the Secretary / Treasurer of the Foundation. During the presentation Managing Director of Q West Promotions Steve Duncan reiterated the importance of entities such as Q West undertaking socially-redeeming endeavors especially in the area of health-related initiatives. To this end Mr. Duncan took the opportunity to announce the beginning of a Foundation under the auspices of Q West that will solicit funding to bring to Grenada an MRI machine. A target date of 2010 has been set for the arrival of this vital and expensive piece of medical equipment.

To celebrate the past ten years and to acknowledge the support of Grenadians over that period, Q West Promotions will be hosting a major Father’s Day event on Sunday June 15th, 2008 at the Grenada National Stadium.


This unique event will be absolutely free to the public and will feature reggae crooner Maxi Priest. Additionally there will be a bingo with a $40,000 jackpot plus other prizes including flat screen televisions and laptops. Also forming part of the evening’s entertainment will be a unique Father’s Day Karaoke Competition among some of Grenada’s top vocalists. This special event will begin at 4pm and end at midnight. Special security measure will be put in place to accommodate the expected crowd. One such measure will include an 18 and over age limit for persons to enter the event on June 15th.

Q West Promotions will like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who in one way or another made the last 10 years possible. To the sponsors especially Heineken and Cable & Wireless the relationship has been productive and we look forward to another mutually beneficial ten years. To the Grenadian public you have exhibited great faith and trust in our ability to produce quality events by your continued patronage and for that we are extremely grateful.

You can look forward to another 10 years of excellence and we look forward to your continued support and loyalty.
