A Tribute to The Reggae Legends

A Tribute to The Reggae Legends

For 28 years San Diego reggae fans have embraced, nurtured and grown the Tribute to the Reggae Legends Festival (formerly Bob Marley Festival). They co-exist as one, united.

Reggae concerts were once rare in San Diego, as artists preformed only in major cities populated with West Indian people. Makeda Dread Cheatom of the WorldBeat Center, felt the empowerment of reggae music, and in 1981, she brought to San Diego its first Bob Marley Festival at downtown’s Community Concourse.
