“We always up the ante with an A-list line-up and 2020 will be no different.

“We’re especially excited to welcome the legendary Bongo Maffin.”

Penny Diao, marketing director at Huawei, said they were proud to be associated with bringing the best music talent in the country together to perform for the Joburg fans.

“We want to continue to give our fans the best music experience in the country,” he said.
