One Love Hits Las Vegas: Bob Marley Hope Road Brings Island Vibes To The Strip

"Don’t worry about a thing, ‘cause every little thing is gonna be all right."

Everything is more than just "all right" at Bob Marley Hope Road at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The vibes are undeniable, the energy is high, and there's no way of leaving this experience without a smile on your face and some love in your heart.

Bob Marley Hope Road, a FiveCurrents creation, recently opened in Vegas and it has crowds of people bonding over the music and life of the late Marley in a fun and memorable way. The show, unlike any other, uses electrifying moves, powerful storytelling, colorful sets, and a feeling of "One Love" to entertain Marley fans, young and old.

The highly anticipated show, that features live performances, powerful storytelling, and a talented cast taking guests on a journey through Marley's legacy, recently opened its doors to fans at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino.

Unlike any other show, this isn't one where you sit in your seat the whole performance. You actually follow the cast from one room to the next to explore another time in Marley's life. The vibrant colors on the sets and costumes set the perfect scene for telling Marley's life. The high-energy performance has guests toe-tapping, dancing around, singing, and really feeling like part of the show.

Developed in collaboration with the Marley family, this show is a true celebration of love, hope, and unity, staying true to Marley's voice and values.

Marley's family has a big part in the show as executive producers.

Cedella, the oldest child of Bob and Rita Marley, is a prominent figure in the reggae world, and CEO of Bob Marley Group of Companies and the director of the Bob & Rita Marley Foundations.

Cedella also served as the global ambassador for Jamaica's national women's football team from 2014 to 2024, known as "The Reggae Girls."

Ziggy, a nine-time GRAMMY Award-winning artist, Emmy winner, musician, producer, activist, and humanitarian, has his own legendary legacy in the industry for nearly 40 years. The oldest son of Bob and Rita, Ziggy returns to the message of "One Love." Ziggy was also the lead producer behind "Bob Marley: One Love" biopic in 2024.

Larry Mestal, founder and CEO of Primary Wave Music, and Scott Givens, Chief Creative Officers and CEO of FiveCurrents, are also producers of Bob Marley Hope Road.

Creative Directors include Amy Tinkham, Chloe Douglas, Jared Sweet, and Louanne Madorma.

When you first walk through the doors into Bob Marley Hope Road, you're met with memorabilia, photos, and quotes. After walking through that room, you enter a large room with a prominent Marley vibe. With a bar in the back, guests can grab a drink before the show begins.

The format of this show is extremely immersive. Some guests may be called to a small stage to showcase their dance moves, and others just jam where they are. The 75-minute journey through the life and times of Bob Marley features some of his most popular songs accompanied by high-energy choreography.

It's tough to not get moving and smiling while experiencing each room of this show, whether you're a diehard fan or not.

Before the show opened, The Blast reported on what fans can expect. Founder and CEO of Primary Wave Music, Larry Mestel, shared his thoughts on Marley's legacy.

"Bob Marley’s music is more than just sound - it’s a movement, a message, and a source of unity that has transcended generations,” Mestel said. “Marley’s legacy continues to shape music, culture, and social change, and through this one-of-a-kind production, we honor the power of his voice and the impact he continues to have on the world.”

Mandalay Bay’s president & COO, Travis Lunn, added, “Mandalay Bay is leading the way with a new wave of immersive entertainment, and we’re excited to introduce Bob Marley Hope Road as our latest experience. In collaboration with FiveCurrents and Primary Wave Music, this is a great opportunity to celebrate Bob Marley’s legacy and provide our guests with an innovative production they will enjoy.”
