The event's loyal patrons decided to not only dress up but went to fully enjoy themselves come rain or sunshine. Everything went smoothly during the day with attendees participating in different traditional games such as koi, safe, mhele and morabaraba while the DJ kept others busy with beautiful music.

One of the biggest highlights of the evening show was Yvonne Chakachaka's performance. She took the audience most of whom senior citizens down the memory lane with her old songs such as Mamaland, Umqombothi, Thank You Mr DJ and Caught Breaking The Law. She also performed a song, which she collaborated with two of the deceased jazz artists who left a footprint in the international music industry, Oliver Mtukuzi and Hugh Masikela. Despite her age, The Princess of Africa, as she is affectionately known, showed the attendees that she still has some dance moves. She also interacted with the audience during her performance despite the rains and appreciated them for finding it fit to attend the show though it was raining.
