The groups and bands that will perform at the farewell function on Sunday include Solly Moholo, Norman Chauke, Jacob Senamela, Mohlupheki Mohajane, David Makgotla, Robin Nchabeleng, Jerry Dibakwane and Duma Msothwane. Entrance to this event is free and food and refreshments will be provided to fans during the function.
