TAMPA, FL – Following the resounding success of two sold-out shows at the prestigious UBS arena in Long Island, New York, Buju Banton, the legendary Grammy award-winning reggae artist, is proud to announce his inaugural Arena Tour, "The Overcomer," which will stop at Tampa’s AMALIE Arena on Sunday, August 25 at 8:00 p.m. Buju Banton, backed by Shiloh Band, captivated fans with a thrilling 90-minute performance over the weekend that showcased his unmatched talent and energy, cementing his status as the first reggae artist to achieve such record-breaking ticket sales in two days.

Rightfully titled, “The Overcomer” tour will feature billboard chart topping special guest artist Fridayy. Known for his exceptional musical abilities, Fridayy, a Haitian American singer, songwriter and record producer, has made waves in the music industry with his “When It Comes To You,” Stand By Me,” “Without You” and his triple Grammy-nominated song “God Did” by DJ Khaled featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z and John Legend.

In a statement regarding this significant milestone, Buju Banton's manager, represented by Joesph Budafuco, expressed great pride in Buju Banton's accomplishments and the monumental nature of his first-ever arena tour. Budafuco highlighted the significance of Buju Banton returning to tour in the U.S. after a 15-year hiatus, emphasizing the anticipation and excitement surrounding this momentous tour.
