An all-day celebration of the best in reggae and world music, the silver anniversary of the legendary Reggae on the River festival will take place along the shores of the majestic Eel River at Benbow Lake State Recreation Area in Southern Humboldt County, CA.
Recognized as the world’s premier reggae festival for more than 2 decades, Reggae on the River has also been the largest annual fundraiser of the Mateel Community Center, a non profit arts and social services organization based in Redway, CA.
Although much different in form than the mega fests of recent memory, Reggae on the River has returned to its roots as a community event, a crucial component of the festival’s appeal in the early days. Of course, great music was the other key ingredient and, in honor of this spirit, Reggae on the River 2009 will feature a diverse mix of top class international artists in an intimate family setting complete with craft vendors, a children’s area, and delicious food and drink to support local non-profit organizations.
The Mateel Community Center invites you to join our tribe and come experience Reggae on the River, 25 years in the making…
