The party scene is intensifying with each passing day as temperatures soar in Johannesburg.
It is still the festive season and no amount of heat will throw a spanner in those works and some organisers have opted to bring their own heat to the equation.
Metro FM will be taking over The Park at Emperors Palace in Kempton Park with its Heatwave experience. The lineup is stacked with noteworthy acts like Shimza, DJ Maphorisa, Young Stunna, Somizi, Murumba Pitch, Oscar Mbo and an array of other enticing prospects.
