MTN Bushfire 2018 new features will increase your experience
Already named the BBC’s top African Festival, MTN Bushfire 2018 takes it up a notch.
“MTN Bushfire is more than a festival, it’s a living, breathing ecosystem deeply rooted in African soil, yet inclusive and welcoming to guests from all over the world,” as said in their overview.
Every year, around 29 000 guests from 58 different countries come together at the lush farmlands of the Malkern’s Valley in Swaziland to celebrate music, tolerance, the arts and the environment.
For their 2018 ‘12th edition’ they’ve taken it up a notch and are offering guests an experience never to be forgotten.
Firstly, they have announced that the camp grounds will be open from Thursday, 24 May, giving you an extra day to set up and relax before getting festive. Not to mention alleviating some border pressure getting into Swaziland.
