About the Fest
Three days. 100 acres. One unforgettable experience.
Born from Love of Reggae
What started as a dream to create a real reggae gathering — one that felt authentic, soulful, and deeply rooted — became Lion Heart Music Fest. Held annually at Paradise Lakes Campground in New Jersey, Lion Heart has grown into one of the East Coast's most beloved reggae experiences.
We hand-pick every artist on our stage. No filler acts, no compromises. Just real roots, real culture, and real music — the kind that moves your soul and stays with you long after the last note fades.
