The Supernova Ska Festival Internship is a partnership between the Alpha School of Music and the Supernova Ska Festival in Hampton, Virginia.
Held annually on the coast of Virginia, Supernova Ska Festival features 3 days of ska and valuable learning opportunities for Alpha students who experience first hand what goes into a multi-day event. Student interns learn about the finer points of festival production, promotion and execution while meeting and sharing experiences with ska musicians and fans from around the world.
Supernova Ska 2025 welcomes international bands like Less Than Jake and Desorden Publico as well as bands from Jamaica including The Cables from Jamaica and even the cast of the film Rockers, this year’s event is not to be missed!
Rockers is one of the greatest Jamaican films of all time—a Rasta-infused Robin Hood story packed with legendary music and timeless vibes. More than just a movie, it’s a cultural landmark that still hits just as hard today! For ONE NIGHT ONLY on Friday, September 12, the film’s iconic star, and Alpha past student, Leroy Wallace, is bringing together the legendary Rockers cast for an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime live performance of the soundtrack at Supernova! This is history in the making—a rare reunion of the stars who helped define Jamaican culture, coming together to bring the spirit of Rockers to Supernova.
