Journey to Kingston brings reggae and dancehall stars to Miramar
Spragga Benz’s earth-strong will anchor a May 30 Miramar takeover with Wayne Wonder, Agent Sasco, the Marley family and a free pre-show lead-in.
Journey to Kingston is setting up Miramar for something closer to a cultural landing than a normal concert. With Spragga Benz marking his earth-strong at the center of the night, the show is being billed as a full-vibe reggae and dancehall experience that aims to bring the energy of Kingston to South Florida.
The main event is scheduled for Saturday, May 30, 2026, from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM at the Miramar Cultural Center Theater, 2400 Civic Center Place, Miramar, FL 33025. Local listings put tickets at about $90.60 to $106.65, while VIP meet-and-greet packages have been listed from $75 to $150. A free pre-event Journey to Kingston Experience runs from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, giving the night a street-festival lead-in before the lights go up inside.
The lineup is the real reason reggae people are paying attention. Spragga Benz, who has spent more than three decades in the music business and remains one of dancehall’s sharpest live voices, is joined by Wayne Wonder, Agent Sasco, Stephen Marley, Damian Marley, Ky-Mani Marley, Tanya Stephens, Everton Blender, Bugle, Pressure Busspipe, Kevin Lyttle, Yohan Marley and Don Yute, plus a special showcase from Red Square. That mix stretches from roots reggae and lovers rock to modern dancehall and crossover sounds, with three of the night’s heaviest names, Spragga Benz, Wayne Wonder and Agent Sasco, setting the tone at the top of the bill.
The production also leans into live musicianship in a way that should separate it from a standard stage show. Bigg D and the Florida Memorial University Orchestra are set to bring orchestral arrangements into the mix, and the pre-event buildout includes DJs Supa Twitch, DJ Bambino, Foota Hype, Jazzy T and Timmy HMV, with Papa Keith hosting. That combination of sound system energy, live instrumentation and marquee performers gives Journey to Kingston a broader cultural reach than a one-night concert.
The setting matters, too. Miramar is a city of 134,721 people, with a 2020 population that was 43.7% Black alone, 39.3% Hispanic or Latino and 42.4% foreign-born in the 2020-2024 estimate. Staging this show in the 800-seat Miramar Cultural Center, a city facility rather than a club, fits the scale of a diaspora event built to feel rooted in Jamaican culture, but presented with civic polish. For South Florida reggae fans, that is the point: one night, one room, and a lineup that makes Miramar feel a lot closer to Kingston.
