The high end concert now has the record for ticket prices in Jamaica.
Reggae legend Buju Banton recently commented on exorbitant ticket prices in Jamaica and says he does not want patrons to put themselves in debt to attend his concert. Speaking with Irie Fm at the Carlisle Avenue studios in St. Andrew Jamaica,
“I am aware of what’s going on in Jamaica, I don’t want Jamaica to come take out a loan to come and see Buju, in the name of Jesus, you understand, I want to make the price affordable, so that Jamaicans can enjoy their culture and see their culture on display. I don’t want you to go and take out a loan and put yourself in deb for six years. Why would you pay so much money when you have to put yourself in debt, so we want to space ourselves out so my people can sort themselves out and live their lives and we celebrate,” the Destiny DJ explained.
Banton, who recently turned 50, says his jam packed “Intimate” concert with Beres Hammond which was held at Grizzly’s Plantation in Priory St. Ann on New Years Day will not be held come next January, but will be pushed to 2025, so people can plan for the event.
