The Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) has been named the beneficiary of Beenie Man's Summa Sizzle Music Festival 2026, a major entertainment event scheduled for Saturday, August 15, 2026, at the Woodleigh Sports Complex in Clarendon.

 

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting Jamaica's oldest and largest hospital, which has provided critical healthcare services to generations of Jamaicans for 250 years.

 

Through this initiative, part proceeds from the festival will go towards enhancing patient care and supporting priority needs at KPH, reinforcing the importance of public-private partnerships in strengthening the nation's healthcare system.

 

Acting Chief Executive Officer of Kingston Public Hospital, Mr. Dwayne Francis, welcomed the partnership and expressed appreciation to Beenie Man and the organizers of Summa Sizzle.

 

"We are truly grateful to Beenie Man and the organizers of Summa Sizzle for selecting KPH as the beneficiary of this year's festival. This generous partnership demonstrates the power of entertainment and community coming together to support healthcare. Every contribution will assist us in enhancing the care and services we provide to the thousands of patients who
depend on KPH daily," said Mr. Francis.

 

The management of KPH encourages Jamaicans to support the event, knowing that their participation will not only provide an evening of world-class entertainment but will also contribute to improving healthcare for countless patients.

 

As KPH continues its year-long celebration of 250 Years of Healing Jamaica, the hospital remains committed to building meaningful partnerships that advance healthcare and improve the well-being of the Jamaican people.
