Indie Fest heads to the coast
The Swakop Indie Music Festival - Easter Edition takes place at the coast on 30 March.This family-friendly event is in support of local musicians and the Have-a-Heart Foundation.
This full-day extravaganza promises an unforgettable experience filled with live music, community spirit and family-friendly entertainment.
The Festival celebrates the diversity and creativity of independent musicians in Namibia. As a platform dedicated to promoting local talent, the festival showcases a wide range of musical genres, including blues, rock, jazz, hip-hop, pop, and even a capella. With its Easter Edition, the festival aims to create an inclusive and family-friendly environment where music lovers of all ages can come together to enjoy a day of entertainment and music.
Best of all, this festival supports an amazing charity, Have-a-Heart, by donating a percentage of proceeds to their cause. Have-a-Heart is a charity that facilitates the spaying and neutering of pets from lower-income households. This is a cause near to the heart of festival organiser and musician, Riaan Smit who is the Namibian ambassador for Have-a-Heart.
Performing artists include Riaan Smit & the ShadowKatz, Vaughn Ahrens Band, Nomad the Poet, Lin-Mari, Jessica Ashley, Jacob & Taylor, Crowd One DJs, Janelle Botha & Die Wandelaars, Sagarias Tsam, 8th Octaves A Cappella, Cassidy and more surprise acts to be announced.
