Artscape To Celebrate Some Of South Africa's Best Young Musicians

Artscape Theatre Centre is set to celebrate the talent of young musicians as well as the success of their band leaders within their respective communities in a grand mass band extravaganza to be held on stage from 26 - 28 October.

Band Stand is a three-day festival that will feature some of the country's best up and coming musicians from eleven (11) bands that were selected from across the province through auditions and workshops facilitated by well-known musicians who also served as mentors such as Ian Smith, Camillo Lombard, Amanda Tiffin and Marc de Kock.
