Saturday night turned out to be one of the happiest days for the Basarwa people as the Xere Community Trust hosted a music festival dubbed Xere Urban Night.

For a small village with little or no recreational sites, the festival was a good gesture and a treat to the residents. They got a chance to see their favourite local artists perform instead of the usual norm of listening to their songs on radios. The artists also did not disappoint as they brought forth their A game to the stage. Amongst artists who delivered a sterling performance was a young man from Hukuntsi named Chokoma who has won a lot of hearts. Together with his artists, they brought life to the event. Local Kwasa Kwasa king, Franco and his dancers also gave the audience a memorable performance.

Later on, the local traditional dance and song group, Culture Spears, led by Kabelo Mongwe, also put up a splendid performance. The group also treated the audience to a performance of its newly released song. Nature BW also did not want to be left behind as he proved to be a worthy promising artist. His talent impressed a number of revellers of who were seeing him for the very first time. The Tlhoma Ka Serethe artist, Monnamogolo wa Thulaganyo, also performed at the event. He even made a competition for the audience to dance his song the way he and his dancers do. DJ KSB served the young audience with a beautiful performance, giving them his good mix.
