Every July 1, we celebrate International Reggae Day. On this day, we recognize Jamaica’s musical and cultural legacy manifested through Reggae, an artform and a way of life. This annual celebration was inspired by Winnie Mandela’s speech during a visit to Jamaica in 1991 which honoured the genre’s power as a voice for respect, human rights, and social justice. The Jamaican High Commission wishes you a Happy International Reggae Day!
