Melodies and flavours abound at Bank Windhoek Seawork Seafood and Music Festival

Michael Kayunde
The 2024 Bank Windhoek Seawork Seafood and Music Festival transformed the Olympia Swimming Pool into a vibrant hub of music and culinary delights on 17 and 18 May. The two-day event, known for its perfect blend of soulful tunes and delectable seafood, drew large crowds eager to indulge in both auditory and gastronomic pleasures.

Friday's line-up set the tone with electrifying performances by Vaughn Ahrens, Crimson House Blues and The Ells. Ahrens' stunning melodies, coupled with Crimson House Blues' infectious rhythms, created an unforgettable atmosphere, culminating in The Ells' captivating set that left the audience craving more.

On Saturday, the festival continued to dazzle attendees with an equally impressive line-up. Janelle and The Wandelaars kicked off the day, followed by the bluesy vibes of Roadhouse Blues. Jacob & Taylor brought their unique sound to the stage, leading to a grand finale by The Yesterdaes, whose nostalgic tunes resonated with the crowd.

The festival, beyond its musical offerings, celebrated Namibia's rich seafood heritage, providing a variety of dishes that delighted food enthusiasts. The combination of top-tier music and culinary experiences solidified the Bank Windhoek Seawork Seafood and Music Festival as a premier event on Windhoek's cultural calendar. Namibian Sun captured these moments on Friday.
