Having secured top notch musical exponents it takes over two days at the majestic and South Africa’s favourite play ground Sun City, Rusty from June 25 to 26.
Yes, we’ve been assured that despite the facelifting the complex is experiencing there’s a dedicated area to host multitudes of fans expected.
The celebrations is a potpourri of kwaito, house, hip-hop and jazz and acts includes Mafikizolo; Robbie Malinga; Black Motion; Sphe & Naves; Naked DJ; Fifi Cooper; Emtee; Tuks Senganga; DJ Big Boy, DJ Papa, DJ Malwela; Thasman, DJ Essence, TJH, DJ Limo, DNS, MCs Lara Kruger & LTK and a surprise act.
Yes, your eyes are no deceiving you- surprisingly chart-buster and Mahikeng born Cassper Nyovest is not on the line up.
Asked what constituted the idea to host the fete at the resort that has gone under the knife, Sun City’s marketing manager Andrew Irumbsa said:” The Motsweding FM Birthday Bash will be hosted at Sun Park, a new multipurpose facility with an indoor events venue and outdoor space for hosting lifestyle events, music festivals and product launches.
It is an ideal venue for the event.”
Tickets to the Birthday Bash are on sale at Computicket and they are limited so the number of people attending will be managed to ensure a premium experience.”
“Sun City shares Motsweding FM’s passion for showcasing home-grown talent and this event offers a platform for fans of authentic, local music to see some of the country’s foremost artists perform live,” continued Irumba.
With the SAMA awards now secured by the City of Durban, it remains to be seen whether Sun City, will use such events to draw back the fans to the complex that is famously renowned for hosting huge international mega shows.
Acting Marketing Manager at Motsweding FM Sibusiso Gumbi says: “Motsweding FM’s listenership cuts across South Africa’s diverse audience from the young to old hence traditionally the inclusion of different genres on the line-up.
This birthday celebration is aimed at bringing our colourful multicultural audience together to celebrate with us.”
Motsweding FM, among others, is celebrated for carving the lives of well known football commentators namely Cebo “CC” Manyaapelo, Aubrey” JR” Motloung and upcoming Oatile Jacobs, jazz guru Peter “The Boss” Maitsapo and Peter “V” Manzana, just to mention the few.
