The 2024 staging of Kansas City’s Annual Reggae Music & Jerk Festival returns on September 13, 14, and 15 at the Berkley River Front Park, a beautiful green space along the Missouri River (1298 Riverfront Drive). Powered by Friends of Reggae International, a Missouri-based non-profit corporation, this year promises traditional Jerk food cook-offs, arts, crafts, poetry, cultural drummers, dancers, and of course live music.

There will be two stages and over twenty reggae and world music bands live in action! Headlined by international reggae star Luciano, the event will also feature Kenyatta Hill, Empress Akua, The Meditations, and that is just to name a few.
