MBABANE– A new proudly Eswatini festival dubbed ‘Imvunulo Festival’ is set to be have its first event.
The Imvunulo Festival is set to take place at Tipsy Cow Club in Matsapha.
When sought for comment, the event organiser Mncedisi ‘DJ Kini’ Zwane revealed to this reporter that it was about time Eswatini had an event to celebrate their roots.
“The festival is brought to emaSwati by Swazi Roots Entertainment. This is a concept we came up with after realising that a lot of emaSwati love dressing up in their traditional regalia. We then thought of an event where everyone would be clad in their traditional wear and are having a great time outdoors and are vibing to great music,” said Zwane.
The DJ further mentioned that entrance to the festival would be free to those who wore their traditional regalia.
“Our culture is beautiful and we should all take pride in it which is why anyone who is dressed in their traditional regalia will enter the festival free of charge,” said the organiser.
Zwane further revealed that the event will be held annually at different venues.
“We will host the festival annually at different venues so that everyone gets to experience it in their hometowns. The festival is for emaSwati so it should be spread far and wide and made accessible in all regions of Eswatini,” he said.
The organiser also mentioned that the line-up has the best of Swazi Roots DJs and emaSwati should look forward to having a great time.
