This year's summer extravaganza promises an unforgettable lineup on the main stage, headlined by iconic Dancehall Queen and DJ, Sister Nancy, renowned for her impactful presence both on stage and in the recent Tribeca Film Festival feature, "Bam Bam: The Sister Nancy Story" (2024).

 

Junior Toots will honor his father, Toots Hibbert of Toots and The Maytals, with a special performance, while Reemah brings the roots reggae vibes from Saint Croix, US Virgin Islands, making her first appearance in our area.

 

Adding to the eclectic mix, award-winning Indigenous hip-hop star Supaman will showcase his unique blend of culture and beats with "The Dancing Prayers," alongside Virginia's festival favorite, Mighty Joshua, known for his uplifting Rastaman vibration.
