SUMMARY:Rise And Shine Village
DESCRIPTION:CENTRO PANTA REI AND RAS JULIO PRESENT\nRISE AND SHINE VILLAGE 2026\nRASTAFARI CULTURE MEETS COMMUNITY LIVING\nCen­tro Pan­ta Rei – Passig­nano sul Trasi­meno (PG)\, Italy\nJuly 3 – 5\, 2026 \n  \nRISE AND SHINE VILLAGE RETURNS IN 2026:\nTHREE DAYS OF MUSIC\, SPIRITUALITY\, NATURE & COMMUNITY LIVING\nAfter the suc­cess of the first edi­tion\, Rise and Shine Vil­lage returns in 2026 with a new inter­na­tion­al\nline-up and an even rich­er pro­gram of meet­ings\, work­shops and moments of shar­ing.\nFrom July 3 to 5\, 2026\, the inspir­ing eco-vil­lage of Cen­tro Pan­ta Rei\, immersed in the nat­ur­al beau­ty\nof Passig­nano sul Trasi­meno (PG)\, will host three days ded­i­cat­ed to Rasta­fari cul­ture\, Reg­gae-Dub\nmusic\, holis­tic well­be­ing and com­mu­ni­ty liv­ing. \nLIMITED CAPACITY \nEvent info:\nhttps://www.centropantarei.com/evento/rise-and-shine-village-2026/ \nTick­ets:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.it/e/rise-and-shine-village-tickets-1988334624386 \n  \nRise and Shine Vil­lage is a col­lec­tive adven­ture while remain­ing inti­mate at the same time\, designed\nto pre­serve an authen­tic sense of com­mu­ni­ty and con­nec­tion between artists\, speak­ers and\npar­tic­i­pants.\nRise and Shine Vil­lage is not sim­ply a music fes­ti­val. It is an immer­sive expe­ri­ence\, a human and\nspir­i­tu­al lab­o­ra­to­ry\, a tem­po­rary vil­lage built around the val­ues of con­nec­tion\, aware­ness\, nature and\nshar­ing.\nBorn from the col­lab­o­ra­tion between Cen­tro Pan­ta Rei and Ras Julio\, the project pro­pos­es a new way\nof expe­ri­enc­ing fes­ti­vals: not as pas­sive enter­tain­ment con­sump­tion\, but as a col­lec­tive expe­ri­ence\nbased on pres­ence\, human encounter and recon­nec­tion with one’s essence.\nFor three days\, artists\, speak­ers and par­tic­i­pants will live togeth­er with­in the same spaces\, activ­i­ties\nand dai­ly moments\, trans­form­ing the fes­ti­val into a true tem­po­rary com­mu­ni­ty. \n  \nRASTAFARI CULTURE MEETS COMMUNITY LIVING\nRise and Shine Vil­lage was cre­at­ed with the aim of shar­ing\, in an inclu­sive and acces­si­ble way\,\nele­ments of the Rasta­fari way of life capa­ble of enrich­ing the lives of every­one\, Ras­ta and non-Ras­ta\nalike.\nRasta­fari cul­ture is pre­sent­ed not sim­ply as a musi­cal\, philo­soph­i­cal or aes­thet­ic phe­nom­e­non\, but as\nan approach to life based on spir­i­tu­al­i­ty\, har­mo­ny\, con­nec­tion with nature\, self-suf­fi­cien­cy\,\ncom­pas­sion and col­lec­tive well­be­ing.\n“Rise and Shine” is an expres­sion deeply con­nect­ed to the Rasta­fari vision of life and rep­re­sents the\nhuman abil­i­ty to rise spir­i­tu­al­ly and phys­i­cal­ly\, bring­ing one’s inner light to the sur­face.\nIt is not mere­ly a slo­gan\, but a true exis­ten­tial choice: decid­ing to “rise and shine” while hon­or­ing\none’s nat­ur­al right to hap­pi­ness\, heal­ing and inner free­dom.\nAt the cen­ter of the fes­ti­val expe­ri­ence lies the con­cept of “One­ness”\, the uni­ty between mind\, spir­it\nand body. With­in the Rasta­fari tra­di­tion\, this vision dis­solves the sep­a­ra­tion between the spir­i­tu­al and\nthe mate­r­i­al\, trans­form­ing every­day life into a sacred and con­scious space.\nFood becomes phys­i­cal and spir­i­tu­al nour­ish­ment. Music becomes heal­ing. Nature returns as\nteacher. Com­mu­ni­ty becomes fam­i­ly.\n“Liv­i­ty”\, the way of life devel­oped by the pio­neers of the Rasta­fari Move­ment in Jamaica\, is a\ncon­scious life based on con­tem­pla­tive prac­tice\, sim­plic­i­ty\, free­dom\, deep con­nec­tion with nature\,\ninde­pen­dence and spir­i­tu­al pres­ence.\nRise and Shine Vil­lage aims to offer the pos­si­bil­i­ty of com­ing into direct con­tact with these val­ues\nwith­out hav­ing to trav­el to Jamaica or Ethiopia\, liv­ing for three days inside a vil­lage where peo­ple\nhave cho­sen to per­form the most rev­o­lu­tion­ary act of all: cul­ti­vat­ing their inner light and shar­ing it with\nthe world. \n  \nMUSIC & ARTISTS\n• King Shiloh – Sound Sys­tem Ses­sion\n• Lion D – Live Con­cert\n• Awa Fall – Live Con­cert\n• DJ Afghan – DJ Set\n• Mr J Selec­ta – DJ Set \nPer­for­mances will be con­ceived as immer­sive and inti­mate expe­ri­ences\, where the audi­ence will be\ninvolved in a son­ic and spir­i­tu­al jour­ney capa­ble of unit­ing ener­gy\, med­i­ta­tion\, dance and con­nec­tion.\nWith­in the Rasta­fari tra­di­tion\, music is not mere­ly enter­tain­ment but a tool for heal­ing\, ele­va­tion and\ncol­lec­tive con­scious­ness.\nThe artists will not only per­form on stage\, but will active­ly par­tic­i­pate in the life of the fes­ti­val\, shar­ing\nactiv­i­ties\, meet­ings and infor­mal moments with the pub­lic.\nRise and Shine Vil­lage was cre­at­ed with the inten­tion of break­ing down the dis­tance between artist\nand par­tic­i­pant\, cre­at­ing an authen­tic human space where music\, spir­i­tu­al­i­ty and rela­tion­ships can\nnat­u­ral­ly meet. \n  \nWORKSHOPS\, SEMINARS & ACTIVITIES\nDur­ing the three days of the fes­ti­val\, from morn­ing until sun­set\, meet­ings\, sem­i­nars and work­shops\nwill focus on: • Rasta­fari spir­i­tu­al­i­ty and phi­los­o­phy\n• Ital cook­ing and nat­ur­al nutri­tion\n• Nat­ur­al med­i­cine and holis­tic well­be­ing\n• Ethiopi­an bio-con­struc­tion tech­niques\n• Exclu­sive meet­ing with King Shiloh\n• Ear­ly morn­ing yoga ses­sions \nMeet­ings will be guid­ed by Ras Julio\, Ras Ibi and spe­cial guests involved for years in inter­na­tion­al\ncul­tur­al and spir­i­tu­al projects.\nThe work­shops will offer the pub­lic a sim­ple\, open and acces­si­ble approach\, even for those\napproach­ing this world for the first time.\nTop­ics will include nat­ur­al nutri­tion\, well­be­ing prac­tices\, med­i­ta­tion\, heal­ing\, self-suf­fi­cien­cy\,\nspir­i­tu­al­i­ty applied to mod­ern life and tra­di­tion­al tech­niques devel­oped with­in Rasta­fari com­mu­ni­ties.\nIn an infor­mal and inclu­sive way\, speak­ers will answer ques­tions from the audi­ence and cre­ate\ngen­uine moments of dia­logue\, lis­ten­ing and col­lec­tive growth. \n  \nA UNIQUE LOCATION IN EUROPE\nRise and Shine Vil­lage will once again take place at Cen­tro Pan­ta Rei\, one of the best-known\neco-vil­lages and envi­ron­men­tal edu­ca­tion cen­ters in Europe.\nLocat­ed among the Umbri­an hills over­look­ing Lake Trasi­meno\, the vil­lage rep­re­sents the ide­al set­ting\nfor an expe­ri­ence that com­bines music\, ecol­o­gy\, per­son­al growth and spir­i­tu­al­i­ty.\nUpon arriv­ing at Cen­tro Pan­ta Rei\, par­tic­i­pants will be wel­comed by a sign that per­fect­ly rep­re­sents\nthe spir­it of the fes­ti­val:\n“Cul­ti­vate your light and share it with the world”\nA sen­tence that encap­su­lates the essence of Rise and Shine Vil­lage: redis­cov­er­ing one’s inner\npoten­tial and trans­form­ing it into pres­ence\, aware­ness and con­nec­tion with oth­ers.\nFor three days\, par­tic­i­pants will live immersed in nature\, tak­ing part in fes­ti­val activ­i­ties and shar­ing\nspaces\, moments and val­ues with artists\, speak­ers and peo­ple arriv­ing from all over Italy and abroad.\nFar from the dynam­ics of large-scale events\, Rise and Shine Vil­lage offers a slow­er\, deep­er and more\nauthen­tic human expe­ri­ence. \n  \nA FESTIVAL DESIGNED AS A LIVING VILLAGE\nThe fes­ti­val grounds will be orga­nized as a true liv­ing vil­lage expe­ri­ence\, with dis­tinct areas ded­i­cat­ed\nto the dif­fer­ent dimen­sions of the event.\nPar­tic­i­pants will find:\n• two ded­i­cat­ed areas for sem­i­nars and work­shops\n• a live con­cert area\n• a ded­i­cat­ed dub sound sys­tem area\n• sev­er­al veg­e­tar­i­an food points\n• bars and local craft bev­er­ages\n• a tra­di­tion­al Ital Juice Bar\n• com­mu­nal spaces immersed in nature for gath­er­ing\, relax­ation and con­nec­tion \nEvery area of the fes­ti­val is designed to encour­age pres­ence\, inter­ac­tion and col­lec­tive expe­ri­ence\,\nallow­ing par­tic­i­pants to ful­ly immerse them­selves in the atmos­phere of Rise and Shine Vil­lage. \n  \nFOOD\, NATURE & LIVITY\nIn per­fect har­mo­ny with the phi­los­o­phy of the event\, Rise and Shine Vil­lage will offer:\n• veg­e­tar­i­an and veg­an cui­sine\n• local organ­ic prod­ucts\n• Ital Food accord­ing to Rasta­fari tra­di­tion\n• nat­ur­al juices and fresh extracts \nThe Ital (vital) tra­di­tion con­sid­ers food a fun­da­men­tal instru­ment of bal­ance\, vital­i­ty and spir­i­tu­al\ncon­nec­tion.\nThe fes­ti­val is there­fore con­ceived as a 360-degree well­be­ing expe­ri­ence where nutri­tion\, music\,\nspir­i­tu­al­i­ty and nature coex­ist in har­mo­ny.\nThe event will not serve spir­its\, while local craft beer and wine will still be avail­able. \n  \nAN EVENT ROOTED IN SHARING\nRise and Shine Vil­lage was born from the desire to cre­ate a real meet­ing space between peo­ple\,\ncul­tures and dif­fer­ent life paths.\nIn a his­tor­i­cal peri­od char­ac­ter­ized by speed\, iso­la­tion and dis­con­nec­tion\, the fes­ti­val aims to bring\nback the val­ue of human pres­ence\, lis­ten­ing and com­mu­ni­ty.\nFor three days\, par­tic­i­pants will be invit­ed to slow down\, share and live an authen­tic col­lec­tive\nexpe­ri­ence where music\, spir­i­tu­al­i­ty and nature become tools of con­nec­tion and trans­for­ma­tion.\nThe vil­lage expe­ri­ence will be built around val­ues of mutu­al respect\, inclu­sion\, sus­tain­abil­i­ty and\naware­ness.\nNot sim­ply a fes­ti­val\, but a tem­po­rary com­mu­ni­ty where a dif­fer­ent idea of well­be­ing and human\nrela­tion­ships can tru­ly be expe­ri­enced. \n  \nEVENT INFO\nRISE AND SHINE VILLAGE 2026\nRASTAFARI CULTURE MEETS

SUMMARY:Roots Up Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:with The Dubprincess & The Hot Step­pas\, Rag­glyf\, Sting­ing Ray & Irie Ites\, Omar Jat­ta\, Jah Vibes Soundsys­tem & David Judah (De/UK)\, Jah Lion Radio /// Doors: 2:00 PM \nA hid­den gem with heart and soul—that’s per­haps the best way to describe this one-day fes­ti­val in Cologne’s north­ern quar­ter. As diverse as the city itself\, the pro­gramme is every bit as colour­ful\, extend­ing beyond the stage to include its culi­nary offer­ings.\nThis year\, the arc of the musi­cal jour­ney stretch­es wide: from the UK to Ghana\, Chi­na\, France and The Gambia—before cir­cling back to good old Ger­many. As tra­di­tion dic­tates\, Jah Lion Radio are firm­ly on the bill\, pro­vid­ing the essen­tial reg­gae sound­track before\, after and between the live sets.\nEven if the line­up doesn’t imme­di­ate­ly flash the biggest mar­quee names\, it is pre­cise­ly the cura­tion that makes the pro­gramme so com­pelling. And let’s be hon­est: Dub Princess has already gone viral on YouTube with her street per­for­mances and\, togeth­er with Bris­tol reg­gae out­fit The Hot Step­pas\, forms a thor­ough­ly fit­ting head­lin­er.\nLiu Rui—better known as Sting­ing Ray—represents an impor­tant voice with­in the Asian reg­gae scene. Backed by the French col­lec­tive Irie Ites\, he deliv­ers roots reg­gae of the high­est order. For Ger­man-Gam­bian Afrobeats artist Omar Jat­ta\, mean­while\, the show will feel like a home game. He has already demon­strat­ed his prowess sev­er­al times at Sum­mer­jam.\nRoots up! Here\, it’s all about the mix.

SUMMARY:City Splash
DESCRIPTION:City Splash is a one day bank hol­i­day fes­ti­val which draws a huge crowd because of its extra­or­di­nary line-up. This year’s def­i­nite high­light is the leg­endary singer Beres Ham­mond with his unfor­getable raspy voice. He cap­tures the essence of Lover’s Rock and also deliv­ers strong reg­gae anthems with con­scious mes­sages. Oth­er big names include Aido­nia\, Ele­phant Man\, and Jada King­dom. Reg­gae is well rep­re­sent­ed by Queen Ifrica\, Gypt­ian\, Lutan Fyah\, The Con­gos… And of course there are many sound sys­tem stages.

SUMMARY:Freedom Sounds Festival
DESCRIPTION:Fri­day: The Beat feat. Rank­ing Junior\, Son­ic Boom Six\, Die Liga der gewöhn­lichen Gen­tle­men\, Sun Byrd\, King Zepha Band feat. B Dubbs\, Trav­el­ers All Stars\, The Mod­birds // Doors: 5:00 PM \nSat­ur­day: Hol­lie Cook\, Dave Bark­er Mr. Dou­ble Bar­rel meets The Mag­ic Touch\, The Mighty Mocam­bos\, Junior Dell & The D‑Lites\, Reg­gae Work­ers of the World\, The Ban­du­lus Revue feat. Jesse Wag­n­er & Vic Rug­giero\, Fly­ing Vipers\, Arte Bel­la & The Fel­las\, Sooth­say­ers\, Dunia & Aram with Lady Hatch­ett and Don Raf­fa\, The Mag­ic Touch // Doors: 1.30 PM  \nReg­gae has many facets. Tak­en as an umbrel­la term\, it encom­pass­es a wide range of Jamaican styles. Year after year\, the Free­dom Sounds Fes­ti­val brings togeth­er acts from around the globe\, pri­mar­i­ly rep­re­sent­ing Ska\, Ear­ly Reg­gae\, Rock­steady\, Jamaican Jazz and relat­ed sounds—resulting in a rich­ly var­ied musi­cal pro­gram on stage. \nOne of Friday’s high­lights is undoubt­ed­ly the Eng­lish 2 Tone band The Beat\, fea­tur­ing the suc­cess­ful father-and-son duo Rank­ing Roger and Rank­ing Jnr.\, whose appear­ance at Free­dom Sounds in 2017 is still fond­ly remem­bered by many. By now\, the junior has stepped into his father’s shoes as the band’s lead singer. Also hail­ing from the UK are Manchester’s Son­ic Boom Six\, who fuse Punk\, Ska\, Hip-Hop and Drum & Bass into an explo­sive­ly dance­able mix—complete with a clear polit­i­cal edge. \nOn Sat­ur­day\, it’s well worth arriv­ing ear­ly\, as the festival’s main day fea­tures one major name after anoth­er. Head­lin­ing is the enchant­i­ng Hol­lie Cook. Effort­less­ly blend­ing Reg­gae\, Lover’s Rock and Trop­i­cal Pop\, she has carved out a dis­tinc­tive niche of her own. With Paul Cook\, drum­mer of the Sex Pis­tols\, as her father and Boy George as her god­fa­ther\, it comes as lit­tle sur­prise that her musi­cal roots can be traced back to the leg­endary all-female punk band The Slits. \nDave Bark­er from Kingston is regard­ed as an impor­tant fig­ure in the Reg­gae and Rock­steady scene. In the 1970s he rose to promi­nence as one half of Dave & Ansell Collins. The duo reached the top of the UK charts with their mas­sive hit “Dou­ble Bar­rel”\, help­ing bring Reg­gae to an inter­na­tion­al audi­ence. Dave Bark­er will come to Ger­many for an exclu­sive show; he will per­form togeth­er with Berlin’s The Mag­ic Touch – yet anoth­er com­pelling rea­son to attend Free­dom Sounds.

SUMMARY:Reggaeville Easter Special - Hamburg
DESCRIPTION:Line-Up: Steel Pulse\, Alborosie\, Hempress Sati­va feat. Pao­lo Bal­di­ni Dub­files  \nThe Reg­gaeville East­er Spe­cial returns this year for its 11th edi­tion. By now\, reg­gae fans have a long-stand­ing tra­di­tion of not going away for East­er — unless it’s to trav­el across the coun­try from one show to the next. After all\, you can nev­er get enough of the off­beat. \nThis year’s East­er Spe­cial show­cas­es the full breadth of the genre. Vet­er­ans Steel Pulse from Birm­ing­ham may have long since set­tled in the Unit­ed States\, yet they still stand as quin­tes­sen­tial rep­re­sen­ta­tives of UK reg­gae — thank­ful­ly none the less sharp-edged or polit­i­cal­ly out­spo­ken for it. \nOrig­i­nal­ly hail­ing from Sici­ly\, Alborosie made the jour­ney to Jamaica decades ago. His music embod­ies the open­ness of a true glob­al cit­i­zen\, espe­cial­ly cel­e­brat­ed not only through­out Europe but across South Amer­i­ca as well. At the East­er Spe­cial\, he will present his lat­est album Nine Mile live on Ger­man stages for the first time. \nMean­while\, Hempress Sati­va has trav­eled from Vine­yard Town in Kingston to Cal­i­for­nia\, where her songs con­tin­ue to praise the sacred herb while chan­nel­ing spir­i­tu­al forces and play­ful­ly flirt­ing with dub aes­thet­ics. This nat­u­ral­ly brings Pao­lo Bal­di­ni into the pic­ture\, with whom she record­ed the now leg­endary — and viral — Vinyl Thurs­day Ses­sions in Pap­ine\, Kingston. For the East­er Spe­cial\, the pair will arrive with their new­ly released col­lab­o­ra­tive album in tow. \nSo — have you dyed your East­er eggs in red\, gold\, and green yet? And have you tucked tick­ets for the Reg­gaeville East­er Spe­cial into your loved ones’ East­er bas­kets? With a line-up like this\, reg­gae afi­ciona­dos of every per­sua­sion are bound to get their share of the groove. \nThe Edi­to­r­i­al Team
