Dancehall heavyweight Aidonia is celebrating 20 years as a recording artist, having emerged in 2005 as one of the most powerful voices in Jamaican music. To mark the milestone, the 4th Genna boss kicked off his anniversary celebrations with a sold-out concert at the 20,000-capacity UBS Arena in New York, performing alongside Sizzla, Mavado, Shenseea, Jada Kingdom, and others.
The celebration now heads to Kingston for a monumental homecoming show on Saturday, May 10, at Sabina Park, presented by 4th Genna Music and powered by Courvoisier.

The lineup includes legendary and contemporary acts: Bounty Killer, Capleton, Ding Dong, Skeng, Valiant, Di Genius, Rajah Wild, and Kraff—creating a one-night-only experience that bridges dancehall generations.
