International Reggae Day is a blowout musical festival in Jamaica. Usually celebrated in July, this festival hosts not only musical talent shows, but a talent search, workshops and a lecture on the life of reggae icon, Bob Marley. This concert is broadcast live all over the world via satellite television and the Internet.
Reggae Sumfest takes place the first week in August each year in Montego Bay. The best in reggae are brought together for a week of sonic celebration. Visitors can purchase tickets for just one night of partying or can spend a little more and get weekend passes, or even a pass for the whole week. Some tickets even include backstage passes. Some reggae artists that perform at this event include Beenie Man, Elephant Man, Sean Paul, Vybz Kartel, Mavado and many others. In addition to this, there is sometimes an international festival that takes place in which international singers come and perform. For example, Toni Braxton performed at the event in the summer of 2009 for the first time. Without a doubt, Reggae Sumfest is a great way to enjoy a week of music.
