A hot, sunny day in The Netherlands. The perfect day for a Reggae Festival with an amazing line-up, which according to the festival visitors, didn’t turn out to be as amazing as the poster advertised. The festival’s Social media got flooded by comments about the running order, food, drinks and merchandise, which might imply that the festival organisation needs to make some adjustments for future editions. Also our photographer had to go through great lengths to get his work done (to put it lightly). But… the vibes on the festival were amazing and the performances were outstanding. Special mention of course to Grace Jones, who left many in awe.
