Summary
Get ready for a legendary dancehall showdown as Vybz Kartel and Mavado reunite on stage for the first time since 2008 at “A Taste of Sumfest,” July 18th at Plantation Cove in St. Ann. This high-energy “clash,” inspired by classic Sting shows, isn’t replacing the main Reggae Sumfest—but delivering pure nostalgia and fire with Ayetian, Jamal, Queen Ifrica, and Marcy Chin also in the mix. The event’s temporary move away from Montego Bay stems from Hurricane Melissa’s damage, giving the city time to rebuild while fans get a taste of reggae’s golden era. Event director Skatta Burrell’s mission? Make sure these legends deliver unforgettable performances—because when Mavado’s voice hits, you know it’s time to move.
