Reggae Festival Guide







 Publisher’s Letter









         festivals  with  legalization  –  and  yet,  the


         reggae festival is still surviving. All over the
         world, reggae festivals pop up every year.

         Reggae  festivals  are  a  microcosm  of  the

         greater  reggae  community  and  culture,

         and will continue to evolve.


         In this year’s magazine, we reach back to the

         dawn of reggae with VP Records and Trojan

         Records, learn about the green initiatives

         festivals  are  currently  implementing,

         look  forward  with  the  Jamaican  Music

         Conference  and  more.  Join  us  as  we

         remember  the  past,  live  the  present  and

         glimpse the future of reggae.                                            FRONt COveR
