About Reggae on the Way:
Reggae on the Way brings the heart and soul of world music to South Tacoma Way, offering a vibrant celebration unlike any other in the Pacific Northwest. This annual, reggae-inspired festival showcases a rich tapestry of styles—roots, dancehall, Hawaiian, and American reggae—set against the dynamic, community-driven backdrop of Tacoma, Washington.

More than just a music festival, Reggae on the Way is a cultural movement—a community united by the rhythm of reggae and the positive energy it inspires. After years of expansion, we’re proud to return to our roots in South Tacoma, where the festival first began as a grassroots block party filled with music, food, and connection.

Our event features live performances from internationally acclaimed and local artists who embody the diverse spirit of reggae music. From iconic headliners to rising stars, the lineup reflects the genre’s global reach and local flavor.

Join us for an unforgettable experience where music, culture, and Tacoma's vibrant streets come together to create something truly magical. Reggae on the Way 2025 is your destination for immersive performances, community vibes, and the universal message of peace, love, and unity that reggae brings to the world.
