MBABANE – It is ranked by CNN as the 7th best international festival in the
world and BBC ranked it as the top 5 must see festival, and it’s all happening
on Swazi soil.
This is the annual MTN Bushfire Festival and this year we celebrate its 11th
edition and tickets will be out March 3, 2017.
The world renowned three-day festival is scheduled to take place down the

000 people from 50 different  countries have purchased their  tickets online.
House on Fire’s Communications Manager Noncedo Dlamini confirmed that physical
tickets will go on sale from Friday, March 3, 2017. “Finally, our local fans
can purchase their physical tickets and get ready for a spectacular show. We
advise all those who wish to attend to buy their tickets as early as possible to
avoid the disappointment we usually encountered in the past years when tickets
get sold out and people have to turn back at the gates.”
Tickets will be available at the following outlets, MTN service centres in
Mbabane, Corporate Place and Manzini, Riverstone Mall, as well as Malandelas
Internet Café in Malkerns.
MTN Bushfire ticket sales will commence with early bird discounted tickets and

of the line-up will be unveiled in sections leading up to the main event.
