Jammin Festival: Australia's Biggest Reggae Party

Among the leading lights is none other than Shaggy, also known as 'Mr. Bombastic,' ready to set the stage alight in both cities with his signature hits. Joining him is the dynamic Sean Paul, who, since his debut in 2000, has consistently had crowds swaying to his dancehall-infused tracks.
