Julian Marley, son of the legendary king of reggae, Bob Marley, is coming to Cairns in what is expected to be a sell-out event at Tanks Art Centre.

Marley will visit Cairns for one night only as part of his Royal Reggae Australian Tour on Saturday, May 11 from 7.30pm.

Hailed as one of the great roots-reggae musicians performing today, Marley will hit Australian shores for his first headline tour in the region and he will be the first Marley to bring a show to Tanks.

The singer-songwriter, producer and humanitarian will bring his 12 piece Uprising band, performing selections from all releases including his Grammy Nominated third album, Awake.

The show will be rated MA15+.  Tickets can be booked via Ticketlink www.ticketlink.com.au or phone 1300 855 835.
