Global music sensation Akon is all set to make a grand return to India with a highly anticipated performance at the Cherry Blossom Festival, slated for November 16-17, 2024. This eagerly awaited event marks a significant moment as Akon, renowned for his chart-topping hits and dynamic stage presence, joins a stellar lineup of artists for this year’s celebration.
The Cherry Blossom Festival, renowned for its vibrant and eclectic mix of music, is set to be a standout event this year, featuring an impressive array of performers. In addition to Akon’s headlining act, the festival will showcase Boney M, who will be gracing the stage as part of their farewell tour. This iconic group, including the founding member Maizie Williams, promises to deliver a memorable performance that fans will not want to miss. Boney M’s farewell tour adds a nostalgic touch to the festival, making it a must-attend event for music enthusiasts.
Joining Akon and Boney M on the lineup is R3HAB, whose energetic beats and global appeal have made him a favorite among dance music fans. The festival’s diverse lineup also includes a special treat for K-pop aficionados. Lucas, the Thai and Hong Kong rapper known for his recent solo debut with 'Renegade' and his work with SuperM and WayV, will be performing, adding an exciting dimension to the festival's offerings.
Organized by Rockski EMG in partnership with Akon’s company, Konvict Touring, this performance is part of Akon’s “Superfan Tour.” This tour is a unique endeavor that involves one concert in each participating Asian country during November and December, with stops planned across up to eight nations.
The Cherry Blossom Festival, held annually in Shillong, has a history of drawing large crowds and featuring high-profile artists.
