Open-air entertainment, which has been part of various venues around the capital, has landed in the city centre at the City Bowling Club.
A new open-air joint at CBC will host its inaugural music session on Friday. Places like Pamuzinda Highway X-scape, Globe Trotter and Kebab took the entertainment industry by storm as deejays rotated at the venues dishing out classic music.
The wave, however, seemed to move from one place to the other and some of the joints lost popularity.
Organisers of the outdoor entertainment at CBC said they were looking forward to filling a gap left by the demise of some programmes to entertain merrymakers that used to frequent those venues.
“Some venues have lost popularity while others have closed down. We are trying to carry on with open air entertainment that has excited party lovers in Harare for a long time,” he said. “We will have a number of DJs taking turns to entertain patrons every week and we are coming up with good programmes, especially for weekends.
“We are hopeful that we will be able to serve the market of revellers that want night-life in the open. The rainy season is coming to an end and we are planning something for outdoor fun.”
He said they were happy to establish such a joint near the city centre.
“The City Bowling Club at the corner of Park Lane and Hebert Chitepo Avenue is accessible to most people and is central. “We are sure its location will be an advantage to us and the merrymakers.”
