Jamaica Observer: KINGSTON — The Government will be hosting a concert on July 1 at the Port Royal Cruise Terminal in celebration of International Reggae Day (IRD).
Prime Minister Andrew Holness made the announcement in Parliament today where he provided an update for the reopening of the entertainment sector.
Holness said the concert will not only signal the reopening of the sector but will also allow the opportunity for the Government to demonstrate how a large event could be hosted with the proper protocols.
