Reggae Sumfest is often dubbed as ‘the greatest reggae show on earth’. The influential icon Bob Marley developed the genre reggae in his home country, Jamaica. Marley died at the age of 36 doing what he loved, after devoting much of his life to music.
First staged in 1993, Reggae Sumfest quickly became popular not only in Jamaica but throughout the world. The festival has successfully incorporated international artists to the line up such as Usher, Chris Brown, Kanye West, Rihanna, etc in past few years. This year the festival kicks off with a Beachfest on 12th July at the Aquasol Theme Park with some renowned deejays and performers. The festival will be followed by other entertainment nights such as DanceHall Explosion, Show Time, etc. This years’s line up includes top talents and international performers.
Reggae Sumfest is regarded as a premier reggae music event and is one of the best times to visit the island country. The festival is not only a paradise for music lovers but also for food connoisseurs to savour the most mouth-watering culinary delights.
Known fondly as MoBay, Montego Bay is graced with a modern international airport (Sangster International Airport) giving an access to vacationers to the music city. The waterfront is lined with picture-perfect sandy beaches, luxury hotels and elegant resorts. Montego Bay is home to the Hip Strip – a full mile of restaurants, entertainment, shopping, fun and excitement. Montego Bay is a thriving city abuzz with activities for every budget and preference.
