Chesapeake Jubilee

Kick off each summer at the annual Chesapeake Jubilee. The Jubilee offers one of the largest varieties of carnival rides and games east of the Mississippi! Renowned for its shrimp feast, 4-H livestock sale, crafts and a KCBS-certified BBQ competition, this event offers fun for everyone! This year's event will take place May 20 - 23, 2010.  

The event annually welcomes national acts. This year's acts include:

Steel Pulse, performing Friday, May 21 at 8 p.m.
A Jamaican-influenced band from England, Steel Pulse blends a touch of Latin and jazz influence with impressive stage theatrics and biting social commentary. Their energetic sound earned them a Grammy nomination for Best Reggae Album of the Year.

With six Top 10 singles, more than 4 million records sold, numerous awards and hit songs around the world, Tonic is a musical powerhouse. Tonic will rock the Jubilee Saturday night, performing their monster hits "If You Could Only See," "Open Up Your Eyes," and "Take Me As I Am."
