From all the coverage I have searched for and surfed into n the net it seems the One Love Jamaica Festival held yearly since 2007 in the Yoyogi Park in Tokyo Japan was another success. Below are some pictures and then links to even more pictures from the festival this year.
As expected the festival had a strong music element featuring a lot of music and entertainers from Jamaica. Wish I was there to see what the little guy to the left was doing :D. If all goes well I’ll have to plan my Japan visit in 2011 to coincide with this festival so I can experience it first hand.
The One Love Jamaica Festival is one of the more popular of the many cultural festivals held yearly in Yoyogi Park as can be seen by the crowds.

It was really good [jamaica] ! Can’t wait till the next one!
glad you enjoyed it!
I was looking for a glimpse of my colleagues from the Embassy dammit
maybe in a few years I’ll be the colleague you are looking out for in the pictures 😀
I’m going in late July/early August to hang out with my Jamaican cousin who’s studying there (hip hip hooray for “seat sales”). Too bad this festival went down before I could get there. Keep up the interesting topics and links to folks in Japan.
I’ve been reading you in my Google Reader for so long that I missed what seems to be a blog makeover. Keep up the good work!
hey I was there in that crowd 🙂 the pictures are on my blog
Looks like a pretty good festival !!
