In 2025, we mark a milestone not just in years, but in moments—25 unforgettable seasons of passion, creativity, and Caribbean unity. “25 in 2025” is a celebration; it’s a tribute to the spirit of evolution that has defined One Island Band from day one.

Born from the mud-soaked revelry of Miami Carnival’s early 2000s, our story began with a tight-knit crew of visionaries. From mud to paint and powder, and eventually to the bold concept of body paint mas, we’ve never stopped pushing the limits of what Carnival could be.
This year, we honor every masquerader, designer, DJ, and team member who made this legacy possible. Each section in “25 in 2025” will pay homage to a defining era or signature theme from our past—blending nostalgia with the flair of now.

As we step into this landmark year, we don’t just reflect—we reignite. This is a celebration of transformation, of unity, of vision. This is 25 in 2025—a masterpiece in the making!
