Jamaica Strong: A Night of One-Love, High-Vibes & Hope

(ReggaeVibeMedia.com) – On Friday, December 12, 2025, music lovers and reggae devotees will gather under one roof at UBS Arena in Queens, New York for the monumental Jamaica Strong Benefit Concert — a powerful celebration of culture, unity and resilience aimed at raising vital funds for communities in Jamaica devastated by Hurricane Melissa.

The benefit concert — presented under the banner of the I Love Jamaica Concert Series and backed by the Government of Jamaica — brings together some of the biggest names in reggae, dancehall and Caribbean music. Headlined by global reggae icon Shaggy and featuring a star-studded lineup including Sean Paul, Inner Circle, Kes the Band, Ky‑Mani Marley, T.O.K., Tessanne Chin, Mikey Spice, Richie Stephens and many more, this concert promises a rich blend of reggae, dancehall and Caribbean rhythm that spans generations.

More than just a night of music, “Jamaica Strong” stands as a vibrant show of solidarity — uniting the Jamaican diaspora, music lovers, supporters of humanitarian causes, and anyone who believes in the healing power of sound. All net proceeds from the concert will be directed toward the official Jamaica Hurricane Relief & Recovery Fund, supporting relief efforts, rebuilding, infrastructure, food, shelter and other essential aid to those impacted by Hurricane Melissa.

As the lights go down and the bass rises, expect soulful rhythms, uplifting lyrics, live debuts — including a special performance by Inner Circle of their new tribute single “Stay Strong” — and a crowd coming together in one-love energy, collective hope, and renewed strength.
