This week has seen some of the first rays of suns breaking free from behind the gloomy British clouds in what seems like an age. This would be the perfect time to get down to Brixton this Sunday to be a part of Regeneration Celebration, where Bob Marley Way will be opened to the public to celebrate 50 years of Jamaican independence and the British Jamaican culture in general in the name of the man himself.
Live music will be provided by the likes of Gappy Ranks, Sway, Devlin, Lady Leshurr and more, along with a soon to be announced special guest headliner, and the event will be attended by the reggae legend's daughter, Cedella Marley, who said: 'We are delighted about the Bob Marley Way celebrations on July 29th. Dad enjoyed many happy times in South London, so I'm pleased Marley's Mellow Mood is working with this community to create an event that will both entertain and leave a legacy. I'm especially excited that our charitable platform 1Love.Org will be on-site to share news on its on-going mission to promote youth, planet and peace.'
Other activities that will feature include spoken word performances, DJ sets and a range of workshops, making Regeneration Celebration the perfect way to soak up some sunny Carribbean vibes in the form of arts and music.
