It will be an exciting affair this weekend when the Lake July Festival takes place at the Lake Chivero.
The festival began yesterday with several musicians and DJs lined up for the big event.
Musicians that include Kinna, Trevor Dongo, Evicted and DJs Ashy Stylz and Nivek will be among the performers.
Kinna said he was happy to be performing on such a big festival.
He is ridding high with his song “Musombo” that has been played in most public places.
Dongo is one of the most sought after musician in the country and he is expected to sample new staff at the event.
