MNYANGOMBILI – The rural community of Mnyangombili is preparing for a night to remember as Emasofeni Bar III stages its biggest event yet on Friday, 29 August 2025. The show, organised by local entertainment promoter Vusumuzi Sihlongonyane, is set to “bring urban vibes to the rural areas” – and for the first time, will feature an international guest artist.
Headlining the evening is Frans CEO from South Africa, whose emotional hit Never Love Again has captured the hearts of audiences across the region. Known for his ability to connect deeply with fans through heartfelt lyrics and relatable themes, Frans CEO is expected to deliver a performance that is both moving and exhilarating.
Sihlongonyane, speaking about his vision for the event, explained: “Masofeni Bar is a place located in the rural areas, so I am trying to bring urban vibes to the rural areas. Everybody deserves that.”
The line-up promises a feast of entertainment with performances from Mtharimba SA, Snapking, Keedow Roshesa, Mavulindlela, Memorie, Altro da Dancer, Slim, Nutty, Genocide, and more. The show will be hosted by Snow White SA, adding another layer of flair and excitement to the evening.
Safety and Security First
Recognising the importance of safety at large events, the organisers have arranged for police patrols, bouncers, and community police to be on-site throughout the night. “Security is safe since they will be on the ground making sure everyone is protected,” Sihlongonyane assured.
What to Expect
The festivities begin at 2 PM, with DJs setting the tone, before live performances take over the stage from 9 PM until late. Best of all, entry is free, making the show accessible to all music lovers eager to experience something extraordinary in their own community.
A Growing Entertainment Legacy
Sihlongonyane revealed that this event is only the beginning. “More events are still coming since we are doing a tour with Frans CEO,” he said, hinting at a growing entertainment movement that aims to put Emasofeni Bar firmly on the map.
With its unique blend of rural charm and urban energy, Emasofeni Bar III is set to create unforgettable memories and solidify its reputation as a cultural hotspot. For Mnyangombili, the night will not only be about music – but about experiencing a new wave of entertainment right at home.
