Music lovers, there is more instore for you! Organisers of the Mpumalanga Arts and Cultural Festival (MACfest) have added United States (US) star vocalist James Ingram, reigning queen of African song Angélique Kidjo and Mpumalanga native Ray Phiri & Stimela to the lineup of musicians that will perform at eMalahleni stadium (former @lantic Stadium) on Saturday 29 and Sunday 30 November.
Previously announced and forming part of the lineup are US group Spyro Gyra, king of Afropop Oliver Mtukudzi, guitar maestro Jimmy Dludlu, South African songstress Simphiwe Dana, doyen of maskandi music Madala Kunene, Grammy-winning acappella jazz group Take 6 from the US, local singer Lira, male vocalist MXO from Port Elizabeth and vocal-guitar-bass-drum quartet 340ml from Mozambique.
I really wish I could be there. On top of one of my favourites, Take 6, I've always enjoyed James Ingram's music. His timeless music is always inspirational.
Please note that on both days, gates at eMalahleni stadium (former @lantic Stadium) will open 90 minutes before the music begins. There will also be ample secure public parking at the cricket and hockey club, off Lukin Street. Tickets for the festival are available from Computicket and Shoprite-Checkers stores. Tickets cost R150.00 for 1 day / R200.00 for 2 days.
Don't miss out on this intercontinental music explosion.
