Treating the VIPs' and VVIPs at a concert like the important guests they are, at the Stanbic Yetu Festival they ensured that they got their money's worth.
This is by ensuring they got the best views closer to the stage, personal washrooms, food was provided in plenty, and allocated bar areas for them to be served.
Timeliness is a factor and in most events you are told it starts at 6 pm only for the event to start at 10 pm most people were surprised that the concert ended at 10 pm everything went as per the schedule.
At some events, it gets so messy at the queues where people are buying drinks but for this event, the waiters and waitresses were enough and were moving around to sell and serve the drinks to the customers at all sections.
In very few concerts do people seating in the regular area actually get seats to be able to rest when they are tired of standing or to even watch from but Stanbic Yetu Festival organizers ensured there were seats for the people at regular.
The ticketing place at the entrance was well organized and as opposed to other concerts where you get to the ticketing department and there is just a lot of chaos from few attendants to no queues.
However, the concert registered a few shortcomings when it came to sound and screens for the main arena section.
