LIVE BAND
Have you ever experienced live bands playing on a sound system that follows the Jamaican heritage? Powered by Nomad Embassy Sound System, the stage will welcome some very talented and unforgettable artists, such as Dezarie. It is the opportunity to discover music from a different perspective.
SOUND SYSTEM
Sound System culture originates from Jamaica. Sound Systems played a pivotal role in the widespread popularity of Ska, Rocksteady, Reggae, and Dub music. Sound System culture is characterized by its bass-heavy sound and serves as a vehicle for conveying positive and powerful messages.
Workshops
We believe in a holistic approach to festivals. It’s not just a moment of entertainment, but quality time spent among humans. To make it valuable, education, discovery, and learning are key. We are driven by passion and curiosity. Workshops will occur throughout all the days of the festival, from woodworking to capoeira, yoga to aerial acrobatics. This year, we’ve prepared a diverse and exciting program.
SOUK MARKET
Craftsmanship is indeed a source of local, national, and international development. It not only provides training and promotes growth but also strengthens social cohesion. As a business model, it addresses current social, economic, and environmental concerns, while also fostering independence. That’s why we place significant importance on providing space for small businesses; it not only enhances visibility but also serves as a perfect way to interact with people.
TOGETHERNESS
Despite not being a specific focus of the Festival it remains a cornerstone of the festival. This is what festivals are about – sharing moments together, in a conscious reminder of our community, our environment, of both today and tomorrow, all within a festive atmosphere underscored by Reggae music.
