Mavado, who was unable to perform last year, will return to the stage, along with a strong lineup of music heavyweights in soca, dancehall and afro-beats.

“This year we have some of the hottest talents right now, Bunji Garlin, Fayan Lyons and Kerwin Dubois have all kicked off the soca season for 2018 with a bang. Then there is the dancehall/reggae line up, which people have told me they are looking forward to because when these artists touch the Best of The Best stage it is always different from any other show. You can expect the unexpected. So we tell the people get your tickets from early, plan to enjoy the entire day with friend and family, good food and great music” says promoter Steve ‘Jabba’ Beckford.

According to Beckford, the concert, that is for music lovers and persons of all ages, will include performances from  Romain Virgo, Masicka, Richie Stephens, Bunji Garlin, Capleton and Aidonia. 

“These concerts allow our culture to live on as well as provide a platform for our artists to showcase and perform for their fans who may not be able to fly out and see them on the various Caribbean islands. We look forward to seeing everyone roll out on Sunday May 27th with family, children and friends” Beckford stated.

Gates open at the Bayfront Park in Miami at 2pm.
