named R&B star Chris Brown as one of the foreign acts on the
line-up for this year's festival.
In a press release, the organisers also welcomed Red Stripe who
returns as main sponsor of Reggae Sumfest, after a hiatus.
The brand now joins a growing list of sponsors which includes
Digicel, Iberostar, JTB, and Wisynco, for the 18th staging of the
country's premier reggae festival.
Also scheduled to perform are Reggae heavyweights Shaggy, Beenie
Man, Tarrus Riley and Queen Ifrica. Sumfest, which prides itself as
"the greatest Reggae show on earth", kicks off with a beach party on
July 18 and continues at Catherine Hall, Montego Bay, on July 22-24.

album. With the release of Graffiti, his third album, the 20-year-old

multi-platinum artiste. Chris is set to thrill the audiences and make
history with his first Reggae Sumfest performance.
