Arnold Coleske, executive director of Afrikaans is Groot, has promised a show of unprecedented scale. "This isn't just another concert – it's a celebration of our language's rich heritage. Expect a multitude of Afrikaans singers, dancers, musicians, and much more. This production will be on a completely different level from anything we've done before."

The concert is particularly meaningful as it returns to the Western Cape, where the Afrikaans language has its roots. The production team has emphasized that this will be a unique show created specifically for Cape Town, not a replica of their Pretoria concerts.
