Levitate Music & Arts Festival announced the first wave of performers for its July 18–19, 2026 gathering at Marshfield Fairgrounds, and the inclusion of Ziggy Marley on the Saturday lineup stands out for reggae audiences. The festival, billed as a multi-genre event, is shaping a cross-genre roster that places reggae alongside rock, roots, jam, and other contemporary acts, continuing a pattern of broader festival curators programming reggae artists into major weekend bills.

Ziggy Marley, as a second-generation reggae artist with deep ties to the genre's history, brings a legacy presence that is likely to draw both longtime reggae fans and festivalgoers who appreciate genre-mixing lineups. His placement on a single-day bill gives fans the ability to plan attendance around a focused reggae highlight while still sampling the festival's wider musical offerings across both days.

Organizers signaled that tickets will be available through a limited presale followed by a general on-sale. Exact presale windows and public sale dates were announced with the initial lineup release; check the festival's official site for the precise schedule and purchase details. Given the festival's weekend timing and the appeal of headline-level acts, plan travel and lodging early to avoid sold-out accommodations and higher last-minute prices.

For the local community around Marshfield and nearby towns, Levitate’s return often brings increased foot traffic, hospitality bookings, and vendor opportunities during the mid-July weekend. Reggae fans in the region gain a convenient chance to see an internationally recognized artist without traveling to larger urban festivals, and community musicians and sound crews can expect opportunities tied to a multi-day event of this scale.

Expect more lineup announcements in the coming weeks as festivals typically add additional acts, late-night programming, and production details. If reggae representation matters to your festival plans, follow the Levitate updates and secure tickets during the presale window to lock in Saturday access for Ziggy Marley’s set.
