SIDVOKODVO – With escaping sound no longer an issue, the most evident
influence of the FNB Smooth Festival was its charming surroundings of Riders
Ranch.
An erudite awareness of high fashion aside, this FNB Smooth Festival gang also
has a keen sense of dance floor awareness. “I want to see Psychemagic
later,” we overhear one switched on lass, no older than my mother remark.
Attracting a slightly more mature crowd than the boisterous boys and girls we
see almost every time we go out, they’re also an amicable bunch. But it’s
not just the music that’s helped spread The FNB Smooth Festival’s word like
wildfire, ensuring its growth in its second year. It had just over 1 500
revellers in 2015 and this year boosted over 3 000.
FNB has raised standards in as far as hosting an outdoor event is concerned.
Everyone who attended the FNB Smooth Festival would attest to this because boy
did we have fun!
Needless to say that Swazis can hold down a good party it was evident that the
kind of setting that this year’s festival provided was something that almost
everyone that attended was impressed by.
