Over the past 9 years, Reggae in the Park has presented  an impressive line up of must see artists including Third World, Maxi Priest, Kymani Marley, Steel Pulse, Damian Marley, DJ Private Ryan, Shaggy, Luciano and most recently Tarrus Riley.

“This international event is an incredible opportunity for homegrown acts to expose their music and our culture to the world,” says Rana-Jamila Lewis, ASW event manager.
“Fans have been calling and messaging us for the past month to find out who the featured artist is and we are thrilled to be finally presenting this lineup, ” says Ms Lewis.  She adds that the show’s reputation has made it an evening that locals and sailors enjoy equally,  “It has grown from a show to a festival of reggae music where race teams and music lovers join forces to enjoy one of the universally loved musical genres – Reggae.  It is wonderful to see and feel the love between the artists, the fans and our visitors.”



Christopher Martin’s trajectory from rising star to headliner and ladies man is credit to his catalogue of hits including:  Look on my Face, Mama and Big Deal.  While Junior Kelly is known for his conscious style and infectious energy with classic recordings such as Love so Nice, Sunshine, and Baby Can We Meet.
