Partson Chimboza of Chipaz Promotions, who are bringing the musicians, said there will be a welcome party at Dream Nightlife, formerly Club Sankayi.

“There will be a welcome party for the artistes who are coming from South Africa and Zambia. I am sure they will be in the country late in the afternoon.

“We want to create an environment where they can feel at home and also get any opportunity to mix and mingle with people and artists who will be able to attend the event,” said Chimboza.

Sungura ace Alick Macheso will tomorrow lead an array of local musicians to perform at the Tuku Memorial Concert where other music heavy weights — Winky D and Jah Prayzah — are set to take to the stage.
