Description

OUR NEWS — Sunday, December 7th, 2025 | Tonight on Our News, the "Nervous Saturday" tradition is complete as Junkanoo groups solidify their entry order for the highly anticipated Boxing Day and New Year’s Day parades, with leaders already talking a big game about taking the championship. We take you through the new, fully digital ticketing process for the parades, which includes enhanced security features and GPS guidance to your exact seat, as thousands prepare for tickets to go live Monday. Our team also visits Jamaica to bring you first-hand accounts of survival and recovery weeks after Hurricane Melissa tore across the island, causing widespread devastation. Plus, police in Grand Bahama are handing out "safe driving awards" instead of tickets as part of a holiday initiative to encourage road safety. Finally, see the stunning transformation of New Providence into a "winter wonderland" as the mastermind behind the decorations reveals his process, including the 53,000 LED bulbs suspended over one park's walkways.
