Reggae Sumfest

The Reggae Sumfest team did a great job putting together #ATasteofSumfest festival in just a few weeks, while most festivals are being canceled or going virtual for 2020, Sumfest is the only Caribbean festival to keep a presence this year. A Taste of Sumfest had a week-long schedule of digital events including music workshops, panels, re-visited older performances and showcased Jamaican homegrown artists on their own turf giving shorter performances for each artist gave us a great sample and something for us to rally around for Reggae and Dancehall music. Official Videos for Night 1 & Night 2 We did a full review last year of some of the best moments of the full experience virtually, but now we all tuned in virtually multi-streamed on Facebook, Instagram and Youtube.    Stylin' on/Vibin' to segment extended video!
