You can see exhibits recalling the life on the King of Reggae, at the Bob Marley Museum on Hope Road, once the home of the late superstar. Whereas the dance halls specialize in playing local music, the clubs and discotheques offer a variety of music to suit the varying tastes of patrons. Theatre in Jamaica is extremely active and from Wednesdays through Sundays, there is a choice of plays to see. Kingston is also home to the National Dance Theatre which has won international acclaim and several other dance companies as well as folk groups, pop, gospel, and jazz bands. A recent addition to the city s entertainment offerings is a cruise around the harbour at nights.
Patrons can wine, dine and dance the night away while enjoying a view of the city from the harbour.
Many of the country s celebrated artists and artisans reside in the city and the surrounding hills. Others who live in the rural parishes adjacent to Kingston and St. Andrew gravitate towards the city to exhibit their work.

At the National Gallery you will find the finest collection of Jamaican art and there are several private galleries all over the city. Diners can choose from local, Chinese, Indian, Korean, Continental, Lebanese and on occasion, African, cuisine.
