The 6th of February marks the 80th Birthday of reggae legend Bob Marley! To celebrate, Young Voices, the largest children’s choir in the world, will host a Worldwide Singalong featuring the ‘Marley Magic’ medley, including classics such as “Three Little Birds,” “One Love,” and “Jamming.” Led by an 8,000-strong choir at Co-op Live in Manchester at 3pm, the event will pay homage to Marley’s powerful messages of love, unity, and peace.

This singalong will unite people from around the globe, inviting them to honour Bob Marley and embrace reggae, a core part of Jamaica’s identity. You can watch a message from Bob Marley’s daughter, Cedella Marley, here.

As part of this celebration, schools, students, and families worldwide can sign up for the FREE singalong with access to resources, allowing them to participate in the world’s largest children’s choir from their classroom, assembly hall, or home while Young Voices live-streams this incredible event. ​ Approximately 140,000 students from 1,040 schools across 38 countries, including Jamaica, are set to take part.

Additionally, February is Reggae Month in Jamaica, a tribute to the island’s musical heritage, featuring live performances, concerts, and cultural events across the island.
