History
Over the years, the festival brought together many major figures of reggae, dub, and dancehall, attracting a large audience every summer at the end of July. Its last documented edition in Bagnols-sur-Cèze was held from July 23rd to 26th, 2014.
The edition planned for 2015 was cancelled by the municipality of Bagnols-sur-Cèze, and the festival did not find a new permanent location to continue under this name. It was locally replaced by the Bagnols Reggae Festival, subsequently organized at the end of July in Bagnols-sur-Cèze, which itself later faced the withdrawal of municipal support.
