"Apart from the featured artistes, we're inviting up-and-coming musicians to be part of the event," said Masunda.
He said the show will start at 2PM to cater for children.
"It'll be a family day out and we are inviting the business community to come and partner us in providing other services," said Masunda.
He said during music interludes they were planning to give fashion designers a chance to showcase their designs.
"We're still fine tuning that as we're waiting for fashion gurus to approach us,"said Masunda.
He said they wanted to make the concert an annual event to promote local artistes.
