This summer MN2S curated the line-up for one of the UK scene’s hottest new festivals, which has now earned two nominations at this year’s UK Festival Awards.
Hastings Reggae Festival featured bumping performances from MN2S bookings Aswad, General Levy, Solo Banton, Reggae Roast and Gardna, along with a full live show from Trojan Sound System, bringing the best and brightest from the global reggae circuit together for a family-friendly celebration of one of the world’s most popular genres.
With a food market focused on Caribbean flavours, a kids entertainment zone and a line-up packed full of dancehall, jungle and (of course) plenty of reggae, the event went down a storm. It didn’t go unnoticed, either: the UK Festival Awards have nominated Hastings Reggae Festival for Best New Festival and Best Small Festival on this year’s shortlist. You can cast your vote below.

MN2S has also programmed a killer line-up for the event’s sister festival, the Manchester Reggae Festival. If you need help putting together a fantastic billing of live acts and DJs for your event or festival, get in touch with our dedicated programming department.
It was a pleasure working with HRF on their first lineups and it was great to go down and see their hard work pay off on the day. Expect big things to come in the future from this festival!
