Celebrating a successful LATAM media trip to Barbados for Crop Over 2026, led by Melanie Neff 🇧🇧
From Colombia, Brazil, and Panama, media and content creators came together to experience the energy, culture, and spirit of Crop Over Festival firsthand.

The itinerary was filled with unforgettable moments — from breakfast events and local celebrations to a special Culture Day, where our guests had the opportunity to dive deeper into the history and traditions of Crop Over and discover the important role Bajan folklore continues to play in the island’s cultural identity.
We were also honored to be welcomed by the Barbados Minister of Tourism and International Transport, Hon. Ian Gooding- Edghill, who shared a special message with the visiting media and welcomed them to Barbados.

Throughout the trip, our guests experienced the sounds of local music, the flavors of Bajan cuisine, the warmth of the people, and the beauty of the island — culminating in Kadooment Day, when feathers, music, color, and pure Bajan energy took over the road.

And to make the experience even more unforgettable, our guests had the exciting opportunity to see Rihanna, Barbados’ National Hero, celebrating on the ground in her home country.

In our latest for the CIIC PR blog, Adriana shares how going beyond the talking points can help find the stories truly worth pitching.
