Yaksta, I-Wayne, Munga Honourable, Tanya Stephens to headline ‘Essence of Reggae Music Festival’ 2025

Published on

January 20, 2025 – Kingston, Jamaica – The wait is almost over! I-Wayne, Munga Honourable, and Tanya Stephens have been revealed as the first headliners for the 2025 Essence of Reggae Music Festival, set to ignite the Ranny Williams Entertainment Center in Kingston on February 1. Known for his soul-stirring performances and timeless hits like Living in Love and Lava Ground, I-Wayne is poised to deliver a show-stopping set that will resonate deeply with reggae lovers. With more artists to be announced soon, the anticipation for this year’s staging continues to build.

This marks the third installment of the festival, conceptualized by Grammy-winning producer and businessman Comar “Frankie” Campbell of Frankie Music. “People expect something bigger and better with each staging, and we intend to oblige,” Campbell said last year—a promise the 2025 lineup is already fulfilling. Tanya Stephens, celebrated for her thought-provoking lyrics and commanding stage presence, and Munga Honourable, known for hits like Bad From Mi Born, will join I-Wayne in delivering an unforgettable night of reggae and dancehall brilliance.

Building on the success of its 2024 edition, which featured standout performances from Sizzla Kalonji, Richie Spice, and Queen Ifrica, the festival has become a cornerstone of Jamaica’s cultural calendar. Last year’s event also included workshops on artist development and the music business, reflecting the festival’s commitment to empowering the industry. Officially endorsed by the Ministry of Culture and Entertainment, the Essence of Reggae Music Festival continues to elevate Brand Jamaica on the global stage.

As fans eagerly await the announcement of additional headliners, Campbell’s assurance that this year’s festival will surpass expectations has only heightened the buzz. With a fresh venue, celebrated hosts Bishop Escobar and Badda Bling, and musical selections by DJ Kurt Riley, the 2025 Essence of Reggae Music Festival promises a night of stellar performances and unforgettable memories. Tickets are now available online at CaribTix.com or via Avery’s Beauty Concept—don’t miss your chance to experience reggae and dancehall at their finest.
