It was sexy, glamorous and fun.

This year's Unite Pink Party saw a stylish crowd pack out Snorkel Park to groove to the latest in dancehall, soca, hip hop, top 40 and reggae.

Visually, the party was a treat, with inflatable pink dancing figures, colourful background lighting and a pink glow casting a rosy hue over proceedings.

But what about the queues for the bars? Last year's event left many partygoers frustrated, with line-ups for drink tickets followed by waits of up to 45 minutes.

This was definitely a factor in Saturday night's attendance, with many people saying they did not want to return to the party this year. There was a noticeable lack of expats and it was a shame the crowd wasn't more mixed.

Those who chose to stay away however, missed out on a great party. The organisation was vastly improved with a wide choice of bars and speedy service.

Snorkel Park never looked so exotic and fabulous, and there was a nice South Beach-style lounge vibe.

The entertainment was also spot on, with a pink fashion show by A.B. Dolce Productions, shooter girls, and a Michael Jackson dance-off, complete with moonwalking.

DJs Deejay Choice, Chubb, OB1, Kaos, Blackstar and YGS kept everyone happy, with a balance of favourites to please both girls and boys.

The late night entry fee of $60 ($20 over the ticket price) did seem a little unfair on latecomers, but overall, this year's Pink Party was a big success.

Those who attended should also get a warm glow knowing that some of the proceeds will go to the Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre, in honour of organiser Belcario Thomas's mother Clara (Pinkie) Thomas.
