Located in Bournemouth, this festival offers three days of live performances, DJ sets, and sound systems in a summery and welcoming atmosphere. The event celebrates reggae culture in all its forms, from traditional roots to contemporary reggae-pop.
The lineup features renowned artists: Maxi Priest, legend of romantic reggae, Hollie Cook, ambassador of British female reggae, and Kiko Bun, rising star of UK reggae. Also performing are Apache Indian, The Dualers, and the legendary Channel One Sound System.

This musical diversity allows for alternating between danceable moments and more meditative atmospheres, while celebrating the richness of British reggae culture. The sound systems create an authentic atmosphere, faithful to the Jamaican origins of the genre.
