About the Festival
Tribute to the Reggae Legends Festival/ Bob Day, has been an annual event in San Diego for 39 years now. The Annual Festival is one of Southern California’s Largest Reggae events. WorldBeat Productions has been the spearhead for bringing Reggae Music to San Diego with artists like Peter Tosh, Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs, Bunny Wailer, Mikey Dread, Black Uhuru, Steel Pulse, Burning Spear, Lucky Dube, Jimmy Cliff and the brightest stars from Africa, Latin America, Europe and Asia.
The first Bob Marley Day was held at the International Blend on 30th Street and then moved the following years to the Jackie Robenson YMCA, Carpenters Hall, North Park Theatre and Adams Ave Theatre. After reaching its capacity in these venues it was time to bring the team's hugely successful Bob Marley Day festival to the San Diego Sports Arena. After consistently selling out capacity shows for over 10 years, Bob Marley Day transformed into what it is now known as Tribute to the Reggae Legends in honor of all the great reggae artist that have passed throughout the years.
