Burna Boy to debut on Reggae Land

Following a record-breaking and fastest-ever sellout of its 2025 edition, Reggae Land says it is matching demand by expanding into a three-day festival for the first time.

Reggae Land said on Monday, March 9, that its July 31 edition will headline global superstar Burna Boy, who plays the festival for the first time. 

“One of the most influential artists of his generation, Burna Boy’s appearance represents another landmark moment for Reggae Land,” the entertainment promotional company said. “The newly added Friday transforms the festival into a three-day celebration for the first time in its history.”

Reggae Land said the event takes place at Milton Keynes National Bowl ahead of the sold-out weekend complete with the high production values. 

“The award-winning Nigerian singer and songwriter blends Afro fusion, dancehall and hip-hop into catchy, indelible hits that have soundtracked summers for the last decade,” Reggae Land said. 

“Expect to hear favorites like ‘Last Last, Ye’ and ‘City Boys’, with magnetic charm and smooth flowing rhythms opening the weekend with a statement show and setting the tone for what is already shaping up to be the festival’s biggest year yet,” it added. 

The announcement follows extraordinary demand for Reggae Land 2026, which sold out in record time after tickets went on sale last week. 

With over 120 artists already confirmed across seven stages, Reggae Land said its rapid rise continues to position it as one of the UK’s fastest-growing and most culturally significant festivals.

From roots reggae and dancehall to dub, jungle and carnival energy, Reggae Land said it has become “a defining platform for Caribbean music and culture in the UK.”

It said the addition of Friday underscores the festival’s evolution, “driven directly by fan demand and community momentum.”
