Excitement is
quickly growing as The Kingdom of Swaziland gears up for its largest music and
arts festival of the year, MTN Bushfire 2015. This internationally acclaimed three-day
festival will be taking place between May 29 and 31 at the House on Fire, in
the heart of Swaziland's Ezulwini Valley. Set against the Kingdom’s splendid
landscape, MTN Bushfire attracts a diverse array of 20,000 enthusiastic
visitors.
Announced this year
by CNN as one of the “7 African music festivals you really have to see”, MTN Bushfire
celebrates creative expression whilst promoting social responsibility,
stimulating the economy and drawing talent and tourists from across Africa and
around the world.
Festival goers can
enjoy three days of music, art, personal expression and social activism in a
unique festival environment. The MTN BUSHFIRE Super Stage showcases the biggest
international and continental artists to an energetic crowd of thousands. The
Super Stage opens out onto sprawling lawns and pristine farmland with the
breath-taking Mzimba Mountains rising in the background. The House on Fire is
an awe-inspiring performance area with a unique flavour. At its core, is the
sunken ‘Afro-Shakespearean Globe Theatre’ that houses a range of performances
and events in music, poetry, dance and others. The Ekhaya Stage celebrates the
character of Swazi heritage through a colourful showcase of cultural
performances, arts and cuisine. This proudly Swazi strand seeks to promote
local tourism to the thousands of international visitors who visit this unique
festival arena each year.
MTN BUSHFIRE is
also an ideal festival for families travelling to Swaziland. MTN BUSHFIRE’s
