Excitement is building for the inaugural Makhado Easter All White concert, scheduled to take place on Saturday, 30 March at the Makhado Show Grounds. The event boasts several high-profile local and national artists.
“We are targeting revellers from Elim, Nzhelele, and Sinthumule/Kutama.

We aim to breathe life into Louis Trichardt and rejuvenate our town's entertainment scene,” stated spokesperson Dakalo Mamathuntsha.
In addition to the main event, other activities will be offered, including the Miss Makhado Easter All White pageant, where the queen, first and second princess, and the public choice winner will be crowned, with substantial monetary rewards for the winners.
The lineup for the main event features renowned artists such as Nkosazana Daughter, Shebe, Prince Benza, Mdu Masilela, Takie Ndou, Mizo Phyll, Gusba Banana, Benny Mayengane, Khakhathi, Rude Kid Venda, and many more. Additionally, about 30 local artists have been booked, including Sister T, Slendergirl, Asa Tee, Shony Mrepa, Bellafonte, YellowMah, DJ Van Tonder, DJ Lagguga, Lutro Da Music, P Postman, Ligevhenga, and others.
The event will kick off at 10:00 and continue until 06:00 the following day. Tickets are priced at R200 and are available at Shoprite and Checkers. VIP tables can be purchased via WhatsApp or email.
Mamathuntsha assured attendees that security measures both inside and outside the venue would be stringent to ensure their peace of mind.

The revival of Tshivenda traditional music is not just the pipe dream of some idealists. Judging by the turnout during a meeting held in Thohoyandou this past weekend, this form of music is about to undergo a major revival.
Tshivenda traditional-music lovers are in for a treat with a collaboration between Tshivenda traditional music legend and veteran Solomon Mathase and popular poet and guitarist Dzomo la Venda. The two were spotted on Saturday, 20 April, at a function in Thohoyandou where they showcased their talents during a live performance.
During a Sunday sermon, Bishop Johannes Muofhe of the World Mission Church’s Fondwe branch prophesied that a musician, someone other than a member of the worship team, would emerge from the church.
