Miami Reggae Festival fuses food, arts and Reggae to raise awareness about extreme poverty as we come together for healing during Jamaica's Independence weekend – a time of reflection on our individual contributions, for reverence in appreciation of what we have, for levity and lightheartedness, and also for peace as we expand our consciousness through the joy of celebration and charitable giving. Festival Founder, Alfonso Brooks, stated that, "We are reaching out to help people come together in peace and love for each other with the tools we know best – music and food to soothe the lockdown blues. Families have been stressed and communities are in need of healing. At this time of a global reset, it is imperative to go back to the foundations of music and culture to remind each other of the power of one love and unity as tools for collective advancement. We are utilizing the energy of old school Jamaican Sound Systems, saluting its pioneers, and emphasizing their value and influence on music and culture today”.
In recognition of COVID-19 regulations, we continue to practice safety precautions. Miami Reggae Festival will continue to keep fundamentals in place – temperature checking, masking, distancing, EPA approved disinfecting, CDC food service guidelines, and staying home when sick to protect all of our residents and visitors. Free disposable masks are available at the gate and throughout the venue on event day. Miami Reggae Festival enforces the continuance of practicing social distancing and the need to keep safe during public gatherings.
