Press Release

“Due to continued issues with Canadian Visa and Work Permit status for Beenie Man, we regretfully have to CANCEL this event.

“Beenie Man lost his US Visa last year and new Canadian regulations, implemented in April, have made it next to impossible for him .to get a work permit for Canada.

“Please return your ticket to the person or location you bought it from for a refund. Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. Our intention was always to put on a great event for the dancehall community and we are dismayed that things have turned out this way in the end,”
