There’s always an exciting, almost nervous energy as you make your way back to the annual pilgrimage. Months of planning. Months of preparations. And then before you know it, it has arrived!

The 36th annual Reggae On The River was upon us from Friday, August 1, 2025, to Sunday, August 3, 2025. 3 stages, tons of vendors, and amazing food. The beautiful Eel River lapping the shores… Inviting all for a cool down and a relaxing float. A lineup that was absolutely stuffed to the gills with goodness!

And when I say stuffed.. We’re talking a Roots and Dancehall reggae playground. Tarrus Riley, Hempress Sativa, Luciano, Busy Signal, Mr Vegas, Romain Virgo, Julian Marley, Turbulence, Third World, Kenyatta Hill of Culture with Pure Roots… the list goes on and on. There was so much to see and do that I literally couldn’t get to it all. But what an absolute blast!

Here are some of the highlights from the weekend..hope you enjoy!
