Zimi Takeover
The Zimi Seh Riva food-inclusive and cooler event held at Tru-Juice River on Sunday, July 2, was one for the books. Main Event pulled out all the stops to transform the venue into a multi-level theme park, and here’s the real deal — the mechanical bull stole the show! Female patrons couldn’t resist hopping on and testing their cowgirl skills, adding an extra dose of excitement to the whole experience.
The deejays, however, were the true MVPs. Whether partygoers were raving on the riverbanks or splashing in the water, the beats kept everyone on a high from start to finish. And an impressive display of fireworks was the perfect way to bring the festivities to a satisfying conclusion..
