The highly anticipated Ku Mingoli Bash music festival will not take place this year, but organizers Sound Addicts Live are planning a bigger and better event for 2025.
According to marketing manager Ellie Chasowa, the team wants to “strategically regroup following challenges faced in previous years.
” The decision to skip this year’s event is to allow ample time to plan and produce a high-standard event.
The 2025 edition of Ku Mingoli Bash will take place from August 4 to 8 at Cape Maclear in Mangochi, and it will be headlined by Jamaican reggae artist Andrew Tosh.
The son of reggae legend Peter Tosh will be performing in Malawi for the first time.
Andrew Tosh has released seven albums, two albums were nominated for a Grammy Award.
The news of Andrew Tosh’s performance has thrilled reggae fans in Malawi.
Nathan Mhango, a self-proclaimed reggae fan, expressed his excitement, saying, “It was great last year when Burning Spear came. Now that we will have another Jamaican reggae artist is super. We are waiting for him.”
The Ku Mingoli Bash event will include water sports, scuba diving, hiking, and a two-day music festival.
Sound Addicts Live is working with Sound System Club Limited from the United Kingdom to help with more international bookings from Jamaica.
The partnership is expected to bring more exciting acts to Malawi in the future.
