Music, laughter and food

- SM REPORTER

AS WE wind down the long weekend, what better way to officially bring in the new season than by being outdoors and having a great time at East Coast Radio’s new event – Concert, Comedy and Craft. Taking place tomorrow at the Durban Botanic Gardens, it promises to be a day filed with laughter, great food and drink and of course, jams. The laid back event will bring together a lineup of celebrated local musicians, popular comedians and some of the best craft food and drinks that KZN has to offer.

Among the musicians who will be performing are iconic afro pop band Mango Groove, awardwinni­ng singing duo Mafikizolo, music legends Ladysmith Black Mambazo and alternativ­e rock band Gangs of Ballet, while the line-up of comedians includes ECR’S Darren Maule and Rory Petzer, as well as Barry Hilton, Carvin Goldstone and Chris Forrest.

The Concert, Comedy and Craft Festival will boast two stages – one with the headline acts and another with local acoustic acts.

It promises to be a great day out for the whole family complete with a food market, a craft beer, gin and whiskey area, a kids zone, open air art and drumming classes.

Oh and come dressed in your traditiona­l best. The person who is the best dressed in traditiona­l attire will win a whopping R50 000.

The fun day out starts at 10.30am and runs until the afternoon.

Tickets are R150 for adults and children over 12, R100 for children between 8 – 12 years old and kids under 8 years old are R20. Tickets are available via Web Tickets
