Plus, joining our already stacked lineup is the iconic Don Letts, playing alongside David Rodigan, The Marley Revival, Pantasy Steel Drum Band, Eba Sallah and DJ Razor - bringing tunes straight from the island to Elvaston Castle on Saturday 14th June! 💥💃🏻🙌🏼

Attendees can expect:

• Tropical rum cocktails 🍹
