Reggae icon Sizzla Kalonji is the headlining act for Jamaican Independence celebrations in Lauderhill, Florida, set for August 3.

Sizzla will not only be performing but will also receive the keys to the city from Mayor Denise Grant.

Also slated to perform are selector Foota Hype along with Etana, Lady G, Admiral Tibet, amongst others. 

The celebration will be held at the Lauderhill Performing Arts Center.

Sizzla says, “The Jamaica Independence celebration is significant to me because it represents the fight of the people, being liberated from the slave system and being an independent country and nation.

“Fans can expect more vibes, more love, more music, and an atmosphere of great expectation and love from the people. Expect an exciting performance,” he added.
