Rebel Salute is the most popular annual music event staged in St. Ann. It started out to commemorate the January 15 birthday of reggae icon Tony Rebel, who shares the same birthday as Martin Luther King Jr., as he's quick to point out. The first show was staged in 1994 in Mandeville, Manchester, and featured the late, great, Garnett Silk, among a host of other artists. The successful annual event was moved to the Port Kaiser Sports Club in St. Elizabeth in 2000 and later to Richmond Estate in St. Ann to capture a wider audience in 2012 when it was extended to two days and nights.
