Music enthusiasts in Mutoko are gearing up for an extraordinary evening as Zimbabwean music icon Alick Macheso, along with his celebrated band, Orchestra Mberikwazvo, prepares to take the stage at Dhana Leisure Centre.
The highly anticipated event is scheduled for Saturday, commencing at 8pm and promises a lively night filled with music, dance, and entertainment.
Joining Macheso will be the dynamic Somandla Ndebele and the Denda Brothers, whose performances are sure to amplify the excitement of the night.
Renowned for his engaging Sungura music style and commanding stage presence, Macheso is expected to deliver a performance that will keep fans dancing throughout the evening.
Organizers emphasise that this event presents a fantastic opportunity for locals to experience live music from one of Zimbabwe’s top musicians at an affordable price.
“This is a chance for residents of Mutoko and nearby areas to revel in the music of our finest, while also mingling and celebrating ahead of the Easter and Independence Day festivities. It's an event not to be missed,” said the manager of Dhana Leisure.
Dhana has previously hosted notable acts, including Peter Moyo, who celebrated his birthday there last August, coinciding with Macheso’s album release, Kupa Kuturika. The venue has also welcomed performances from the Chillspot Family and Freeman.
Situated along the bustling Mutoko-Nyamapanda Highway, Dhana Family Leisure has established itself as more than just a stopover; it’s a destination for travellers, food enthusiasts, and families seeking a welcoming environment to unwind and enjoy delicious meals.
