Goo Goo Dolls to Highlight St. Kitts Music Festival

The Goo Goo Dolls will be performing at the 21st annual St. Kitts Music Festival this summer.

The festival, which will take place June 22-24, will see performers including Jah Cure, Mavado and Shabba Ranks, among others.

“We are very pleased to welcome The Goo Goo Dolls to St. Kitts,” said St. Kitts Tourism Minister Lindsay Grant. “Having such a popular musical group as part of this year’s roster is a testament to the mix of musical genres showcased by our event, which has become a successful platform for driving tourism to our shores during the start of what is typically our low season for visitor arrivals.”

The St. Kitts Music Festival has become one of the region’s more popular music festivals, having hosted artists from Lionel Richie to John Legend to Wyclef Jean in recent years.
