Join us on Friday, June 26 after Ship Point comes to a close and Victoria Ska & Reggae Fest transforms ENCORE for Dubwise & Dancehall, a Jamaican night out - where the dancefloor becomes culture in motion with bold style, fearless movement, and unity in every lyric.

Curated by local reggae icon Caleb Hart, Dubwise & Dancehall is going to be more than just a Caribbean party; it will be a form of cultural and sonic teleportation. From deep dubwise pressure, sub-bass rolling through the room, to explosive dancehall energy. Our world-class DJ's – dancehall general Nico Supreme, Canada’s jungle king Marcus Visionary and DJ Real West will be taking you on a journey from classic riddims to modern anthems. We’re also excited to welcome 2025 Juno Nominee SKYSTAR, who has been defining Canadian reggae on a global stage, blazing his trail from the icy streets of Alberta, with a fresh sound and unmatched energy. Bringing a touch of deep soul to this Caribbean party is Montreal’s Miss Diva, another one of Canada’s most dynamic and inspired reggae performers.

This isn’t background music; it’s sound system spirit, sweat, and celebration. Dress to impress and be ready to move your body and feel the essence of the Caribbean come alive.
