‘Francois Van Coke en Vriende’ was an aptly named, once-off show in Pretoria’s massive Sun Arena and a truly world class production (props to AMP Events). It featured collaborative performances from Francois’ bandmates in Fokofpolisiekar, Van Coke Kartel and Die Gevaar, as well as friends from Die Heuwels Fantasties and aKING, and solo artists including Karen Zoid, Arno Carstens, Coenie de Villiers, Majozi, Jack Parow and Early B.

It was also sold out – no small feat considering that there were over 8500 seats!

Here are some photos from one of the most memorable shows of the year.
