DJ Tira’s Fact Durban RocksΒ toΒ continue virtually
DJ Tira’s Fact Durban RocksΒ willΒ be hostedΒ virtuallyΒ after the Kwazulu-Natal government confirmed the band of big events.
The eventΒ was due to be held atΒ Moses Mabhida Stadium on Thursday, December 31Β for New Yearβs eve.
The KZN provincial governmentβs press statement made it clear thatΒ no major live eventsΒ would beΒ taking place in the province in the effort to curb the second wave of the coronavirus.
βThe Executive Council on advice by medical and scientific practitioners resolved not to encourage the hosting of major events in the province owing to the threat and risks imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
βKZN is edging closer towards the Covid-19 second wave cliff, according to the latest figures.βΒ
DJ Tira’s Fact Durban RocksΒ went virtual on Channel O in JulyΒ but naturally theΒ Record producer, DJΒ and founderΒ of the event was hoping for a proper New Yearβs eve bash since virtual events just arenβt the same.
βWe are working on a virtual concert that will make sure that people have something to stay for at home this festive.
“We call on the government to support us as this ban on events will not only affect the livelihoods of artists who are already struggling but small businesses who depend on events,“Β he said in a statement.
It’s one of the biggest music events on the calendar attracting thousands of revellers. Β
Artists scheduled to perform at this yearβs event include DJ Simmy, Sjava, Sun-El Musician, Shimza, Focalistic, Master KG, Nomcebo Zikode, DJ Bongz, Songz, Zakwe & Duncan, Zakes Bantwini, Dladla Mshunqisi, Babes Wodumo, Mampintsha, Tipcee, Joocy and Beast.
Details of where and howΒ Fact Durban RocksΒ will be hosted online have not yet been released but could possibly be via Channel O once again.
