King Leo Promotions 2nd annual Riddim Runway, Reggae Festival and Fashion Showcase on Saturday, September 19th and Sunday, September 20th in downtown Ft. Myers was the place to be. Riddim Runway is a fusion of live Caribbean music and fashion and was created by King Leo Promotions as a way of giving back/giving thanks by providing support to children’s charities. Each year, profits from Riddim Runway are allocated to children charities both in the US and the Caribbean. The beneficiaries of this year’s show will be Darlene & Friends locally and L.O.A.F. (Love Over All Foundation) in Jamaica.

“It’s great to see the community coming together to enjoy music, culture and fashion and at the same time helping our future generations both here and in native West-Indian Countries”, says Stacy Lee-Williams, VP of Marketing for King Leo Promotions who celebrates her birthday each year with this annual non-profit event.

Charity

Love Over All was created by Ky-Mani Marley to enable the educational development of youth by developing programs and distribution of grants that help promote positive change in low socioeconomic communities. Darlene & Friends/City’s Best in Talent showcases and awards the City’s Best in Education, Performing Arts and sports, creating a positive relationship with youth in the community.
