United in Hope Benefit Concert by Good Hope FM

Raise hope for Knysna fire and Cape Storm victims and witness an incredible line-up of musicians, comedians, dancers and MCs

Local radio station Good Hope FM and GrandWest Casino are joining forces to stage a massive concert in an effort to raise funds for the victims of two recent tragedies that hit the Western Cape – the Knysna fires and Cape storm. It’s happening at the Grand Arena on Saturday, 5 August 2017. In a gesture of genuine kindness, no less than 100% of the proceeds from the event will be donated to support these groups. This is a chance to give back while partying it up and enjoying entertainment delivered by a vast array of talented local MCs, DJs, comedians, musicians and dancers, who will all be performing for free.

During June 2017 the drought-stricken Western Cape was hit by a massive storm, including heavy rain. Needed as the rain is, it caused significant chaos and destruction. Countless residents lost their homes and some even lost their lives. Several schools buildings suffered storm and fire damage too.

The Benefit Concert hopes to help everyone affected by these events to literally rebuild their lives, as many of them are unable to do so without our support. By coming together with your friends and family and attending this event you too can make a positive impact and give those in need a leg-up.

The line-up for the evening is phenomenal, including chart-topping musicians, dance crew Afrika Ablaze busting some moves, and comedians causing lots of laughter.
