The 2026 staging of Reggae Sumfest will take place for one night only at Plantation Cove in St. Ann.

The announcement has sparked mixed reactions among fans. Some question whether the one-night format will work, while others are concerned that Plantation Cove could lead to traffic congestion.

Despite the debate, excitement is building to see Vybz Kartel and Mavado share the stage.

The highly anticipated event, themed “A Taste of Sumfest Gaza/Gully,” will mark the first time the two iconic dancehall stars perform together since the West Kingston Jamboree in 2009.
