Participants will get a taste of the cultural experience rooted in reggae music, most notably the One Love philosophy propagated by music legend Bob Marley and dozens of other reggae greats over the years.
The all-day event will run from noon until 10pm on Saturday, September 24 th and will feature live music by Vancouver’s best local talents as well as national & international reggae artists. There will also be food trucks with a variety of cultural foods with vegan options.
The Amexem Society's mandate is to facilitate a collaborative partnership with the city of Vancouver on behalf of various artists and performers within the Reggae, Dancehall, Hip-hop, Spoken Word, Soul/Neo/Latin-Soul genres. Our success is rooted in our efforts to holistically integrate the distinct vibe of the culture surrounding these genres into the Vancouver Roots Cultural Experience. By bridging the gap between Vancouver and domestic or international artists typically unknown to Vancouver's mainstream music landscape, we hope to establish a sustainable channel for endless opportunities whilst simultaneously contributing to the betterment of Vancouver's heritage through the arts and cultural awareness.
