Jamaica Family Fest returns

Jamaica Family Fest will return on Saturday in Montego Bay and on Monday in Kingston.

Gospel Linkup, promoters of the event, promises a wide array of activities this weekend for both legs of the event.

“This year we have more than 30 exhibitors, even those featuring Jamaican history and heritage. We brought back the Auto Show feature of the event showcasing amazing new vehicles from Nissan, Kia, and Honda. We will also have free health checks with the Ministry of Health on site,” Andrew McKenley, CEO for Gospel Linkup, said.

Celebrating its ninth anniversary in Kingston, the free event will now be staged on Heroes’ Day at Hope Gardens, while Montego Bay will get a second opportunity to experience the festival as well, after an extremely warm welcome to the second city last year, the event will return in fine style at Harmony Beach this Saturday.

Jamaica Family Fest will also feature a kids village with over 30 rides and games, an education fair, business expo, health fair, a food village and culminates with performances from; Alaine, Lubert Levy, Chi Ching Ching, and Kevin Downswell.

Jamaica Family Fest continues on their mission to give families wholesome entertainment that will leave them feeling enriched and blessed. Working alongside partners: Harmony Beach Park, the Urban Development Corporation, Tracks & Records, Jamaica Biscuit Company, Old MacDonald Farms, Fidelity Motors, ATL Automotive, Sagicor, Jamaica Theological Seminary, JBDC, Love 101 FM, Bess FM, Roots FM, and Mello FM.

“We will continue to fill the gap; providing a fun, wholesome and safe space for families to come out together and enjoy themselves. We look forward to this weekend’s staging and hope patrons from both cities come out and support,” McKenley added.
