Global production company FiveCurrents announced its latest venture: Bob Marley Hope Road. Set to debut later this year at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, this immersive experience promises to redefine entertainment as we know it.
“Get ready for a punky reggae party when Bob Marley Hope Road brings people of all ages together,” exclaimed Givens, Chief Creative Officer and CEO of FiveCurrents. “Bob’s iconic voice and anthemic lyrics will take audiences on a journey where spectacular visuals and stunning performances sweep them into the middle of the show…literally.”
Bob Marley Hope Road isn’t just a show; it’s an experience designed to transport visitors into the heart of Bob Marley’s legendary music and life story according to the release. From the moment guests step inside, they’ll be enveloped by a vibrant tapestry of color, sound, and emotion, as Marley’s timeless tunes fill the air.
The experience will offer two distinct encounters: a captivating walk-through during the day and electrifying live performances at night. Whether visitors seek quiet reflection or lively celebration, Bob Marley Hope Road aims to cater to every mood and preference.
This revolutionary project is a collaboration between FiveCurrents and Private equity company Primary Wave Music, with executive producers including Cedella Marley, Ziggy Marley, Scott Givens, and Larry Mestel founder of Primary Wave and former music executive at Island Records.
