Buju Banton First US Show In 13 Years - Saturday, July 13, 2024 - UBS Arena in Queens, New York
|
 Reggae and Dancehall star Buju Banton is returning to a US stage for the first time in 13 years with a concert titled “Long Walk To Freedom New York.”
The show will be held on Saturday, July 13, at the UBS Arena in Queens, New York. Dahved Levy will host the event, which will feature music by Bobby Konders and Jabba. Tickets go on sale this Friday.
The UBS Arena, an indoor venue that opened in 2021, seats up to 19,000 people for concerts.
Earlier this month, Banton revealed he had been granted a visa to return to the United States, making his upcoming concert possible.
This will mark his first US performance since January 2011, when he held his ‘Before The Dawn’ concert at the Bayfront Park Amphitheater In Miami, Florida. The concert attracted approximately 10,000 fans, according to World A Reggae. The ‘Before The Dawn’ album itself, released in September 2010, went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in February of that year.

Piercy, CA ~ Reggae on the River is back! August 2,3,4, 2024 - The Legacy Continues...Tix on Sale
|
 The Mateel Community Center and Hot Milk Ent. present Reggae on the River 2024 on August 2-4, 2024 in Humboldt County, CA.
CLICK HERE FOR FULL LINEUP
The iconic Northern California reggae festival will bring together international headlining musical acts August 2-4, plus onsite camping, festival attractions and direct-to-consumer cannabis sales from Humboldt County’s legendary family weed farms.
Founded in 1984, Reggae on the River has grown into one of the longest running and most beloved events on the global reggae scene, while always maintaining a “homegrown” community vibe. Organized by Humboldt County’s Mateel Community Center (in conjunction with Hot Milk Entertainment)—and still run as a local non-profit with no corporate involvement—Reggae on the River has evolved over the last forty years to draw crowds of up to 15,000 people while featuring international headliners like The Marley Brothers, Toots & the Maytals, Burning Spear, Jimmy Cliff, Third World, and Steel Pulse.
Held at the beautiful County Line Ranch in Piercy, California, this year’s festival will mark the return of Reggae on the River following a six-year hiatus.
Confirmed 2024 headliners include Konshens, Capleton, Anthony B, Collie Buddz, Lila Ike, Stylo G, Demarco, Skarra Mucci, Sister Nancy, plus a late night DJ dance party on the river, and more!
Music will run from noon till late night on three stages, including a stage where attendees can listen while swimming in the Eel River.
Beyond the music, this will be the first Reggae on the River held in the age of cannabis legalization, and for the first time will feature an official “cannabis zone” powered by Humboldt’s own Cannifest, where adults can purchase and consume cannabis products direct from the Emerald Triangle’s legendary farmers.
“Humboldt County has long been known for growing the country’s best outdoor, organic cannabis while pushing back against the government’s misguided prohibition against this beneficial plant,” says Christina Augustine, Vice President of the Mateel Community Center. “This year's Reggae on the River is the perfect opportunity for people to come and enjoy our local produce and culture while enjoying world-class music and camping out under the stars.”
A fully family-friendly event (children under 12 admitted free with an adult), Reggae on the River also highlights local food, drinks, crafts, art and vendors. Tier 1 tickets are available now.

We offer you many ways to help you get your fix of reggae music, history, lifestyle, current news, and of course, festivals, all year round.
Our publicity & marketing company keeps growing and adding elements to bring you trusted coverage of reggae happenings from around the world.

If you wish (and we really wish you wouldn't) like to be removed from this list, please reply with REMOVE in subject line.
It will make us very sad if you do, and perhaps your removal will be the one the makes us decide this no longer worth doing at all, and all the information we provide will go away forever and musicians will sit home alone at night and cry because they have no one to play for because no one knows about their shows or music.
