17th Annual Bob Marley Movements Caribbean Festival

Saturday 27: 17th Annual Bob Marley Movements Caribbean Festival

While the locals still call it Marley Fest, the official title of this classic reggae event is disturbingly long: 1-800-411-PAIN Presents Bob Marley Movements 17th Annual Caribbean Festival and Food Drive. But as Bob Marley would say, "One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain." Marley's sons Stephen, Damian, Kymani and Julian will carry on his peaceful legacy with performances at this event. Reggae acts Shaggy, Capleton, Spragga Benz and Tarrus Riley will also take the stage, as will Deerfield Beach-based roots-reggae group the Resolvers, Miami reggae act Jahfé and Naples pop group Vega Under Fire.
Location: Bayfront Park, 301 N. Biscayne Blvd., Miami
Time: Gates open 2 p.m.
Cost: $50 and four canned goods in advance; $55 and four canned goods day of show
