Dancehall luminary Alkaline has announced the highly anticipated return of his signature live event, New Rules, to Jamaica. The concert is slated for Saturday, July 5, 2025, at the Trelawny Stadium, marking the homecoming of the acclaimed series for the first time since its 2022 staging at the National Stadium in Kingston.

The event forms the third leg of the New Rules 2025 tour, which begins in London on April 17 and will continue to Canada on June 21. This international rollout underscores Alkaline’s sustained global appeal and the increasing demand for his live performances across key diasporic markets.

Conceived as a platform to both celebrate and elevate dancehall culture, New Rules has evolved into a multi-city phenomenon, distinguished by its high production values and commanding stage presence. Its return to Jamaican soil is both a strategic and symbolic gesture — bringing the brand full circle to the place where it originated and where Alkaline’s fanbase remains deeply rooted.

The 2025 Jamaica staging promises a star-studded lineup of special guest performances, with a dynamic mix of established acts and rising voices in Jamaican music. While the full roster of performers will be disclosed in the coming weeks, organizers confirm that this year’s edition will feature a reimagined production concept designed to elevate the concert experience.

The choice of Trelawny Stadium reflects a deliberate shift toward accommodating a broader audience and enhancing infrastructure for both fans and performers.
