Known for hosting classic kwaito festivals, Waars Was Jy is back this year, bigger and better with an all-new Oldies Series headlined by South African Kwaito group, Trompies.

The event will be held at Botswanacraft on May 25, with Wizards of the Desert as the supporting act and DJ Boogie Sid keeping the crowd entertained all night. This Series is meant to appeal to the older generation, who in the words of the organisers, are their biggest supporters.

Trompies did not only make music to be remembered for generations to come, but they also popularised Dickies and made a lot of people wear Converse back in the 90s and early 2000s. Some of the big names they will debut with at this coming series are Spikiri, Mahoota, Jakuramba, Mjokes and Donald Duck. “Be prepared to go back in time with Trompies with hit songs such as magasman, bengimgaka, sweety lavo, and madibuseng, making the day one to remember for days on end,” the organiser, Lecco Kenosi of Leccotainment posted on the event Facebook page.
