NWWRF continues their tradition of peace and unity through the festival experience.
To celebrate the 21st anniversary, we are bringing back many of our favorite performers along with new groups we have always wanted to showcase.
We also will be showcasing our local and regional acts as we always have over the last 20 years.
Prezident Brown has been with us since he headlined our first event in 2005 and he has continued to come back fourteen times over the years. We are blessed to call him family and look forward to his set closing the weekend Sunday Afternoon!
Sister Nancy will be headlining Saturday Night. We have wanted to have her for many years! Be ready for a memorable evening from the Queen of the Dancehall!!!
Co-Headlining Saturday will be Marlon “Ganja Farmer” Asher from Trinidad and Tobago. He always brings the high energy roots.He is coming off a massive year of touring
and new music.
Friday night we are blessed to have Teflon Young King! Hailing from St. Mary, JA, he is one of the new group of young artists that are bringing a positive movement.
Friday we are also featuring two great Dub artists – Jallanzo the Dub Wizard and Mikey Dub.
We have alway featured new and up-and-coming acts that have become staples of reggae music festivals worldwide.
This year we are continuing the tradition with Dre Z Melodi, Young Shanty, Keteis Oyonde, Brady Shamar, Kava Jah and Jubba White.
NWWRF has also strived to stay affordable so that a family of four can come and enjoy a great experience together as a family. Youth 14 and under are free and there are lots of activities for the youngest roots reggae fans!
We have great camping areas and plenty of space for RV’s.
NWWRF features an incredible array of craft booths with many local artisans who bring the beauty of their crafts to the event and create a village of sights, smells and beauty.
All food booths are organic and our own general store offers organic drinks, snacks and more for the whole family.
We have an ethos of being a sustainable event. Our office buys 100% solar and wind power, uses all recycled paper products, generators run on Biodiesel, and we recycle everything we can from the event. Pack it In —Pack it Out!!
NWWRF focuses on wellness for mind & body with morning yoga, qigong, drum workshops, swimming in the Sandy River and message booths to get you into your day.
To open the event, a drum group from the Warm Springs Tribe, Dog Butte Singers, will perform an opening ceremony to bless the land and sky.
We are truly blessed by all the involvement of so many thoughtful artists and performers and are looking forward to presenting a very fun and powerful event this year — our 20th Anniversary —and look towards a bright future bringing Roots Reggae to the Pacific Northwest.
