Organiser Preggie Chetty said the event will be designed to appeal to all ages and interests. “A multicultural show will form a central part of the day, giving young people and adults a stage to showcase their talents in singing, dancing, and other performances. Schools and cultural organisations from churches, temples, and mosques will be invited to take part.”
“This will be an opportunity for amateur performers to develop their skills and for the community to enjoy a variety of entertainment.” Chetty added.
Car lovers can look forward to a Car Show and Shine, featuring old, exotic, and high-end vehicles. “We hope to keep people interested with a great display of cars,” Chetty said.

The event will end with a free disco starting at 18:00, giving families a chance to enjoy music and dancing together.
