Orlando, Florida…This summer, you don’t have to go all the way to the islands to celebrate International Reggae Day on July 1. Bahama Breeze’s Reggae Fest, kicking off on International Reggae Day, will bring the “don’t worry, be happy” attitude to life with the sounds, tastes, sights and vibes of Jamaica. From July 1 – August 13, the night will take on a rhythm of its own as live music fills the air, while Jamaican food and drinks lift the spirits.

Bahama Breeze will turn up the party every Saturday during Reggae Fest, featuring live bands in all 36 locations across the country. Jamaican Jerk Saturdays will feature the top reggae talent in each city, every week, so that guests can enjoy the best live music of the islands all summer long. While dancing their cares away to the sounds of the Caribbean, guests can also experience pop up rum punch bars, games, giveaways and more.

Since nothing says summer like good food, good vibes and good music, Reggae Fest will feature an outrageously delicious Jerk-Everything platter, party-friendly buckets of Red Stripe beer, and One Love, a new signature cocktail. Guests will also be treated to amplified sounds of summer inside the restaurant with signature reggae playlists from Gary Gunn as part of the brand’s ongoing partnership with the world-renowned artist and music curator.

“Reggae Fest is an authentic Jamaican party that was created to help guests kick back, relax, and enjoy the carefree attitude of the summer,” said Jaime Bunker, vice president of brand management at Bahama Breeze. “This celebration aims to capture the good vibes and good times, sounds and flavors of the islands.”
