The second Mango Groove got on stage at the Pretoria Botanical Garden on Sunday the 17th of May, people stood up from their picnic blankets and camp chairs to jive. What a mind blowing performance it was.

A lady in the crowd said she has been in love with the Afro pop group since 1986, not long after Mango Groove was formed as one of three multi-racial South African bands that still rock her world till today!
We all had spunk in our steps clapping our hands and stamping our feet to popular songs like Dance sum more and The lion sleeps tonight.
While the show went on, people took walks enjoying the natural scenery at the Pretoria Botanical Garden, some lay comfortably with family and friends enjoying wine or beer with snacks.
They were people filled with joy, laughing like one group said, “Is my chin in the picture?” when taking a picture to share with the ShowMe community.
A bit of kwela, marabi and pop makes very groovy sounds. When Mango Groove performed their last song for the day, the fans pleaded, chanting, “We want more! We want more!”
Nothing compares to live music, see our pictures below to find yourself:
