Thursday 26th. of August is the date chosen by the Lion Stage Programmers (the Rototom stage which don't forgett is powered entirely by solar energy thanks to the agreement reached with the Italian company Ecoluce) entirely dedicated to the ladies, a date clearly pointing toward multiculturalism with artists coming from countries such as Chile, Sweden, Jamaica and Spain...

He will be ccompanied by Ras Soldier (also from Las Palmas) and his riddims scheduled for Saturday 21st August. Kuami Mensah originates from Benin but resides in Valencia where along with his Afro Latin Band makes an interesting blend of reggae, Latin and afro rhythms: There concert is scheduled for Sunday 22nd August.

The Lion Stage will be also hosting some Easter European reggae scene, which quality was well marked at the last European Reggae Contest editions: Gregory G. Ras is the lead singer of Riddim Colony, the main Hungarian reggae band, Even though he's already got two solo Cds.
