Official Reggae Land UK 2025 Lineup — From Chronixx to Marcia Griffiths, Mavado to Tanya Stephens. This is more than a show. This is cultural legacy in motion.
Bless up and welcome to Di Culture Link — where music, memory, and meaning connect across generations. This August, I’ll be stepping into Reggae Land UK — not just to experience the vibes, but to document the culture in real time. With over 60 artists across 4 stages, this is more than a festival. It’s a living timeline of reggae, dancehall, dub, lovers rock, and sound system heritage.
The Lineup Is Legendary
Chronixx • Capleton • Mavado • Dexta Daps • YG Marley • Alpha Blondy • Steel Pulse • Protoje • Tanya Stephens • Morgan Heritage • Marcia Griffiths • Kabaka Pyramid • Christopher Martin • Lila Iké • Etana …and that’s just the beginning. Reggae Land 2025 brings together some of the most respected names across the genre. Every single artist tells a different part of the story — and when they unite on one stage, it’s nothing short of a cultural celebration. This lineup is not just music — it’s legacy. It’s testimony. It’s every sound from Studio One sweetness to modern-day fire.
What Di Culture Link Will Be Covering
At Reggae Land, I’ll be there not just as a fan — but as a cultural correspondent. Through Dancehallroom and Di Culture Link, I’ll be capturing real-time moments from the festival grounds, behind-the-scenes snapshots of the artists, the sound systems, and the fans, reflections on how reggae and dancehall shape identity, resilience, and community, highlights on language, fashion, and the spiritual energy of the space, and full post-show recaps and cultural write-ups right here on this blog.
Dancehall, Bashment and Sound System Fire
Here are some notable dancehall and modern crossover artists who are performing:
Dexta Daps – Known for his raw street anthems and seductive bashment energy
Mavado – Gully God himself bringing fire and militant vibes
Capleton – Di Fireman still blazing stages with righteousness and roots
Spragga Benz – A veteran with that gritty Kingston delivery
Christopher Martin – Smooth vocals blending reggae and dancehall fusion
Gyptian – Bridging the gap between sensual reggae and uptempo bashment
Also featured in the sound system and dub corner:
Saxon Sound
King Tubby’s Sound System
Ragga Twins Crew
V Rocket Sound
Shabba Party, Styxld, and Rampage Sound
This side of the lineup brings raw dancehall fire, UK bashment basslines, and the sound system vibrations that keep dancehall culture alive — from streets to stage.
Lovers Rock Still Reigns
While the fire blaze high on the main stages, Lovers Rock holds down the soul of the festival. It’s the sound of tenderness, longing, and powerful womanhood — a genre born in the UK but rooted in Jamaican emotion. This year, Reggae Land honours the Queens:
Marcia Griffiths – A voice that shaped generations
Dawn Penn – Iconic for “No No No”, still delivering soul
Janet Kay – Pioneer of UK Lovers Rock
Carroll Thompson – The High Priestess of Lovers Rock
Adele Harley – Carrying the next generation of sweet reggae soul
Lovers Rock might move slower, but it hits deep — a genre of healing, heartbreak, and harmony.
Why This Festival Matters
This isn’t a press pass for vanity. It’s a frontline seat to cultural preservation. Whether yuh grow up pon Dennis Brown or just now discovering Protoje, Reggae Land is a reminder that Jamaica’s influence stretch further than island borders.
As Lady Dee, I’ll be representing not just for myself, but for Di Culture Link — a platform built to honour the roots, rhythm, and stories that shape us. If you believe in the mission — preserving heritage, highlighting artists, and archiving vibes — support the movement below.
