Already postponed because of the Jamaican elections (themselves delayed by Hurricane Dean), Curefest is set to see further changes to its schedule. A gigantic three-day festival with an unimaginable line-up dedicated to Jah Cure's release, Curefest is a victim of its own success, and the organisers, ever shrewd, have decided to split the three nights across three different venues. From 12 to 4 October, the festival will therefore take place successively at the Starfish Trelawny Hotel, then at Pier 1 in Montego Bay, and finally at the Trelawny Multi Purpose Stadium, a venue better able to accommodate festivalgoers for the main night.
Let us remind you of who will be there:
Jah Cure, Shaggy, Richie Spice, Vybz Kartel, Bounty Killer, Beenie Man, Bushman, Capleton, Jah Mason, Cocoa Tea, John Holt, Perfect, Maxi Priest, Queen Ifrica, Mr Vegas, Chuck Fender, Chezidek, Daville, Fantan Mojah, I Wayne, Cecile, Alaine, Tarrus Riley, Conrad Crystal & Sugar Roy, Delly Ranks, Wayne Marshall, Lady Saw, Mavado, Lutan Fyah, Gyptian, Bling Dawg, D’Angel, Frisco Kid, Hit List, Lexxus, Munga, Nesbeth… and others.
