DURBAN is set to honour late reggae icon Bob Marley with the One Love Peace remembrance concert next month marking 39 years since the artist’s death.
The concert will be held on 8 February, 10:30 am at the North Beach Amphitheatre. Fans of reggae will be treated to well known reggae musicians such as SAMA award winner, Black Dellinger, Nkulee Dube, and the Meditators amongst others.
Durban has held the concert since 2007 which was launched by Marley’s wife, Rita Marley, with the aim of promoting one love among all races and people.

This is the first time that the event will be held at the North Beach amphitheatre to accomodate more people. Approximately 4000-5000 people are expected to attend.
“The most important thing about this event is that it promotes social cohesion as it always brings together people of all races, colours and creed together to share the “One Love” that Bob Marley used to preach. It also promotes tourism as we have witnessed having visitors from around the African continent and internationally from Jamaica, Miami and the UK celebrating this day with us here in Durban,” said organiser, Bonginkosi Ngidi.
Tickets are available at Computicket for R100 General and R350 VIP.
