The event is slated for December 28 at Lobatse, Pandor Serenity. Set to redefine how music lovers connect with their favourite artists and each other, this event promises exclusivity.

"This is a lifestyle entertainment established to cater for vibrant, classy and financially stable customers based in Lobatse and surrounding areas such as the capital city Gaborone," Matong said.

Heading into their ninth year, Matong feels that the intimate experience is what has been keeping BWOB ongoing all these years.
