The top 10 finalists in the 2025 Jamaica Festival Song Competition will vie for the coveted title during the final results show on Saturday, July 26, at Emancipation Park in Kingston, beginning 8:30 p.m., where more than $3 million in cash and prizes will be awarded to the winner.

The competition, organised by the Ministry of Culture, Gender, Entertainment and Sport through the Jamaica Cultural Development Commission (JCDC), attracted more than 160 song entries this year.

Festival Song Committee Chairman, Orville Hill, reported that all entries submitted for this year’s competition were preliminarily screened by a panel of judges over a two-day period.

Those 30 entrants competed in the semi-finals in May at the Ranny Williams Entertainment Centre in St Andrew from which the 10 finalists were selected by a panel of judges.

He added that the final promises to be exceptional, with each of the finalists bringing something unique to the stage.
