About Reggae Sumfest

Jamaica's biggest reggae and dancehall stage, two all-night shows by the sea in Montego Bay.

Sumfest takes over Catherine Hall in mid-July with a week of beach parties and sound-system nights building to two main stage nights, one dancehall and one reggae, that run until sunrise. It is the show Jamaica's own artists save their year for. Pace yourself; the headliners rarely appear before 3 a.m.

Know before you go

Buy tickets ahead; the main nights sell out.
Negril is 90 minutes west if you want a beach to recover on.
Sangster airport is 15 minutes from the festival grounds and the hotel strip.
