Aidonia promises unforgettable show in Kingston

After 20 years of lyrical dominance, hit records, and lasting impact on dancehall, Aidonia is bringing the celebration to his roots. Following a sold-out show at New York’s UBS Arena on May 3rd, the veteran deejay is now set to headline the Kingston leg of his 20th anniversary this Saturday at Sabina Park, and judging by the buzz across streets and social media, it’s gearing up to be a historic night.

Backed by renowned event producer Romeich Entertainment, the Kingston show on May 10 will feature high-profile guests including Ding Dong, Bounty Killer, Skeng, Capleton, Valiant, Di Genius, Rajah Wild, and Kraff—promising an unforgettable night of lyricism and a journey through dancehall’s eras.

Speaking ahead of the show, he shared how much the night means to him and his plans to connect with day-one fans in the city that raised him. “Basically it’s going to have the same vibe and high energy. However, the Jamaica performances are gonna be a bit different. Mi a kinda change it up, a different style of performance weh the people nuh get fi see from Aidonia over the years. Most of the time I perform, it’s for a set time space. However, fi the 20th, mi a perform fi the whole 20 years so you know seh it ago be different, definitely!” he shared.

“It’s not just about nostalgia, it’s about evolution,” Aidonia explained. “Yuh a go get the classic sound, but yuh also a go feel the new wave.”

For Romeich Entertainment, the event is both a production and a passion project. "Aidonia is one of the pillars of modern dancehall," said Romeich Major, founder of Romeich Entertainment. "When we were approached about being part of this moment, it was an easy yes. We’re not just producing a show, we’re honouring a journey."

Romeich promises a top-tier production with world-class stage design, seamless flow, and tight security to ensure a safe, immersive experience for patrons. “It’s not just about the music, it’s about the vibe, the culture, and showing how world-class Jamaican talent can be when it’s done right,” he added.
