One of the event organisers, Sydney Roberts, vice-president of Jamaican Jerk Festival Inc, says that this year is bigger than last year. He is proud that for the eighth staging, Grace has come on board as the title sponsor, resulting in the name change from Miami Jerk Festival to Grace Jamaican Jerk Festival.
