A seven-foot-tall bronze statue of late reggae legend, Bob Marley, is set to be unveiled in Liverpool, United Kingdom on September 9.

Marley's message of peace, love and unity is to be on full display at the Positive Vibration Festival.

A spokesperson for the Liverpool festival said Marley is a cultural icon who is recognised and adored all around the world, and his positive messages are needed now more than ever.

The statue was commissioned to Andy Edwards who is known for his work with The Beatles' statue on Liverpool's waterfront, and the Mohammed Ali statue that was erected in Liverpool's Baltic Triangle.
