Verein Nanang will host a special musical showcase titled Support Jamaica on December 12 at Na Nang Club Vienna in the 1170 district of Wien. The concert will feature live performances by reggae artists Jah Mason and King Pata, both known for their impactful contributions to roots reggae and conscious music.

In addition to the headlining acts, the event will include musical selections from several well-known DJs, including DJ Lady Messeng, DJ Taff, Brain Doctor, and DJ Willy. Entry is set at 20 euros, and the event is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m.

Richie B Radio continues its mission to support communities affected across the island through Operation Restore Jamaica, a two-phase outreach initiative featuring outside broadcasts in St. James, St. Elizabeth, Westmoreland, Hanover, Trelawny, and St. Ann. Members of the public are encouraged to contribute essential relief items—including food, water, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and lighting equipment—by dropping them off at Richie B’s Liquor Centre, 120A Constant Spring Road, Kingston 8.

Adding strong musical support to the movement, acclaimed singer, songwriter, and producer Hopeton Lindo, along with the Irie Pen family, has joined forces with Richie B Radio to help drive the initiative forward. Lindo is offering special reduced-rate dubplates for a limited time, with the proceeds going directly to Operation Restore Jamaica.

Selectors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity: secure your dubplates, elevate your clashes, and contribute to Jamaica’s restoration efforts. Through music, community, and collective generosity, Operation Restore Jamaica aims to help families rebuild and recover stronger than before.

The organizers of the Jamhuri Reggae Festival have announced the postponement of the 2025 staging, which was originally scheduled for November 29 at the Uhuru Gardens in Nairobi, Kenya. The decision follows the devastating impact of Hurricane Melissa on Jamaica, where many of the festival’s featured artists reside. Several performers have been directly affected, shifting their priorities toward rebuilding and recovery during this challenging time.

In a statement shared by Headcornerstone Entertainment, the team expressed that the postponement was made out of deep respect and solidarity with the people of Jamaica. They emphasized that the well-being of the community and the artists remains paramount. A new date for the Jamhuri Reggae Festival 2025 will be announced once conditions stabilize and it is appropriate to move forward.

The organizers offered sincere apologies to fans, sponsors, and vendors for any inconvenience caused, noting their appreciation for the public’s patience and understanding. All ticket purchases will be fully refunded, with further updates to be communicated through official festival channels.

The upcoming Jamaica Hurricane Relief Benefit Concert in Belgium aims to provide essential aid to residents of Hanover, Jamaica, who continue to recover from the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa. It is scheduled for Saturday, December 6, 2025, at VK, located at Rue de l’Ecole 76 in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean.

Patrons will be treated to live performances by celebrated Jamaican talents including Winston McAnuff, Teacha Dee, and Omar Perry, with a DJ set by Doctor Pepper.

Tickets are now available via the venue’s website, with pre-sale admission set at €23 and door tickets at €25. All proceeds from the event will go directly toward relief efforts in the affected communities of Hanover.

VK’s longstanding cultural connection to Reggae and other Jamaican-born genres makes this benefit concert especially meaningful. In collaboration with Omar Perry and the Black Ark Foundation, the venue is taking action to support the island that has contributed so greatly to its identity and musical heritage.
