Appleton Special Dream Weekend will make the experience as comfortable and hassle-free as possible, when its Redemption Centre opens tomorrow, a day before the festival.

The Dream Village and Redemption Centre, located at the UDC football field on Norman Manley Boulevard in Negril, opens from 2 to 10 p.m. and will be the hub of Appleton Special Dream Weekend.

Season band holders will be treated to Appleton Special's 'The Dream' cocktail upon entry, and the bar will be open for other purchases. The VIP patrons will get free Wi-Fi access and special gift giveaways, courtesy of title sponsor Appleton Special Jamaica Rum. Adding to the excitement of the redemption process, Appleton Special Dream Weekend selfie sticks can be won, so patrons can share their special moments as they enjoy the dream experience. A guest sign-in wall is available for guests to immortalise their attendance with their signatures.

The Dream Village and Redemption Centre will be open for redeemers to explore the various sponsor kiosks and booths, which will also offer memorabilia for what promises to be an unforgettable weekend. For those patrons who need a last-minute touch-up to take on the 10 sizzling events, a new addition will be a special beauty bar, which will sport nail techs, stylists and barbers.

The Redemption Centre continues operating from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, and midday to 7 p.m. on Friday. Patrons must present a valid ID for purchasing or redemption of tickets or season bands.

Those who purchased tickets online should come with their printed e-ticket, a valid ID and the credit card used for the purchase to redeem their bands for the festival.
