On Thursday, July 20 Pier One will play host to the exciting Sumfest Heavy Weight Clash, then culminates at Catherine Hall on Friday, July 21 and Saturday, July 22 with the pulsating rhythms of music and Jamaican culture.
Reggae Sumfest’s local appeal is matched by its global appeal, as the internationally recognised brand, pulls music lovers from around the world and Europe in particular. “The concept of “Our Music, Our Festival” appeals to the worldwide community eager to share in Jamaican experience.
“Jamaica is infectious,” Bogdanovich continued. The Reggae Sumfest experience has also attracted the support of corporate sponsors. “In partnership with our sponsors, we will be offering several premiums to our local and international patrons,” Bogdanovich added.
These premiums are expected to complement the world-class performances with superior production values for which Reggae Sumfest is well known.
