Miami Beach Pop Festival Adds Guest to to All-Star Celebration of Bob Marley

The upcoming Miami Beach Pop Festival will make history with this year's inaugural event, highlighted by a milestone collaborative tribute to the ultimate music legend, Bob Marley. Set for Friday, November 8, the All-Star Celebration of Bob Marley will showcase a number of once-in-a-lifetime performances, led by eight-time GRAMMY® Award-winner Stephen Marley, joined by his brother and very special guest, four-time GRAMMY® Award-winner Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley, sharing one stage with a diverse lineup of stars. Festival headliner Jack Johnson will also join the celebration, along with Latin GRAMMY® Award-winning singer Nacho, plus GRAMMY® Award-winning frontman of Arcade Fire, Win Butler. The genre-blurring special guests - both announced and unannounced - will come together for one night only to perform a selection of Bob Marley's classic songs, with a superstar reggae band joining each song, guaranteeing an unprecedented evening of musical creativity and transcendent cultural connection under the stars on Miami's iconic South Beach.

"Bob Marley is perhaps the most beloved artist in the world, and his unifying message is exactly what Miami Beach Pop is all about," says festival co-founder Paul Peck, famously known for producing epic scale collaborations, including the Bonnaroo Superjam. "The impact of his music and spirit cannot be understated. We are honored to create this historic show during sunset on the first day of the festival. It will be an unforgettable moment in time."

Miami Beach Pop celebrates its home by reflecting the city's extraordinary cultural diversity with a groundbreaking selection of artists, spanning an incredibly wide range of genres and cultural backgrounds. In addition to the All-Star Celebration of Bob Marley, Friday, November 8 at the Festival will feature Jack Johnson, Juanes, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Jessie Reyez, Bomba Estereo, Margo Price, Two Feet, MAGIC CITY Hippies, DJ Windows 98 (a.k.a. Win Butler of Arcade Fire), Roosevelt Collier, Spam Allstars, and the Miami Beach Senior High Rock Ensemble.
