The line-up for the evening is impressive, featuring renowned artists such as Nongcebo Buthelezi, Nozipho Beulah, Sithabiso Khumalo, Lungelo MD Kunene, and Nosmilo Mamba, among others.
The Itende Worship Experience is a gospel movement dedicated to showcasing and nurturing local talent. “We are grooming our artists to introduce them to the public and provide them with a platform to shine,” Tsabedze explained. Notably, this movement is entirely Swati-based, with a mission to spread the power of Itende worship and praise beyond Eswatini’s borders to the nations.
This year’s collaboration with South Africa’s Indumiso YeTende marks a significant milestone in the growth of the Itende Worship Experience. Tsabedze expressed his enthusiasm for this partnership, stating, “We are excited to announce that this edition will feature South Africa’s finest Indumiso YeTende. We are expanding our horizons and building a relationship with this amazing group to grow both the Itende Worship Experience and Indumiso YeTende into new territories.”
Attendees can look forward to a fully packed line-up with a promise of exhilarating performances that blend local and South African gospel talent. Tsabedze encouraged guests to bring their dancing shoes, stating, “It’s a 6 to 6 event, and we plan to have fun until the morning in the presence of the Lord.”
Tsabedze urged the community to purchase their tickets promptly, emphasising the importance of support from EmaSwati and local organizations. “We hope to receive overwhelming support from our community and businesses to ensure this vision continues to thrive. Tickets are available through +268 76843826,” he concluded.
Ticket prices for the event are structured in phases to accommodate different audiences. Phase 1 tickets are priced at E50, Phase 2 at E80, and tickets purchased at the door will be E100. Given the rising anticipation, Tsabedze encouraged early ticket purchases, noting that the early bird tickets were 65% sold out just weeks after their release.
