The One Love Festival is
upping the ante in 2019 and launching Good Vibes - a sister festival,
featuring an array of local and international acts, setting the scene for three
days of the finest roots, rock and reggae around.
Good Vibes Festival will
be held at Soper
Reserve, Mount Maunganui on Friday, January 25,
before One Love
2019 kicks off at Tauranga Domain over Auckland
anniversary weekend (Saturday,
January 26 and Sunday,
January 27).
One of the reasons for launching the Good Vibes Festival is to develop new
acts to perform at future One
Love festivals, as well as feature music heavyweights.
The exciting Good
Vibes Festival line-up for 2019 features festival
favourites and crowd pleasers, the legendary
Kora and the super
hot
Sons of Zion.
Josh Wawa is
an exciting addition. Wawa, who
last week announced a 4-date New Zealand tour for August, is one of the most
requested acts for One
Love every year and is looking forward to returning in
2019 as he showcases new music as well as the favourites.
Also joining the line-up are American-based reggae artists Kiwini, Micah G, Jordan T and local
reggae acts NRG
Rising, and Lion
Rezz – with more acts to be announced.
There is an Earlybird sale on August 1 at 7.00pm.

The addition of Good
Vibes to the One
Love Festival fray makes way for a fun-filled Auckland
Anniversary weekend in the Bay of Plenty, near some of the country’s most
beautiful beaches.
It will also provide entertainment for the tens of thousands of punters who
flood into Tauranga early for the One
Love Festival, which is now in its fifth year and drew a record
crowd of 18,000 earlier this year.
The One Love
2019 line-up includes headliners UB40, featuring Ali Campbell, Astro and Mickey Virtue.
The chart-topping multi-platinum reggae-pop act will be performing as part of
their
Real Labour of
Love, 40th Anniversary World Tour with hit songs such as
Red Red Wine,
(I Can’t Help) Falling In Love With You, and
Kingston Town.
Other acts include Bob Marley’s son Ky
Mani Marley, British legend Maxi Priest (
Wild
World,
Close To You), Hawaiian reggae Kings Kolohe Kai and US
soul singer LaTasha
Lee. Emerging Jamaican star Raging Fiyah will
also perform in New Zealand for the very first time.
Katchafire, FIJI,
L.A.B,
Aaradhna,
Tomorrow People,
General Fiyah,
Paua, Common Unity and
Cool Meditation are
also on the bill, with another line-up announcement due in the next few weeks.
