As an addition to the widely popular
and successful initiations competition run by The TribeOne Dinokeng Festival

There has been 1 venue in each of
the 7 districts of Tshwane selected to host the Battle of the City competition running
from this weekend Sat 16th August for the next 4 consecutive weeks.
Each entrant will have a 10 minute
performance time. This acquate's to 2 songs for bands and 1 sets per DJ.
Artists need only perform once at their nearest venue.
Registrations & new applicants must
perform at the venue which they applied at. Those who have not yet had the
opportunity to apply can still do so on the day at their closest venue but must
do so during the relevant registration time slots according to their type of
performance (Band, Singer/Rapper or DJ)
as indicated in the attached schedule.
Judging
will be held by a panel of 4-6 industry
experts and the judges’ decision is final. Fans are encouraged to join the festivities as their support
counts towards the judges’ votes.
