Mokala Concert in the Bush
In April 2015 the spectacular surrounds of Mokala National Park will host a concert by Chris Chameleon, one of South Africa's most acclaimed singers. It promises to be a memorable experience, with Chris's music complementing the beautiful setting.
It promises to be an unforgettable evening under the stars. On 18 April 2015 singer Chris Chameleon will perform under an imposing camel thorn tree in Mokala National Park.
Situated about 70km southwest of Kimberley, Mokala National Park is a place of big skies where rare antelope graze under camel thorn trees. (Mokala is the Setswana name for camel thorn.) It is in this pristine setting that a special concert will be held.
Aside from the nod to nature in his name, Chris Chameleon is someone who loves the outdoors. "When we approached him about the concert, he immediately agreed," says honorary ranger Elsa van Staden. "He said it sounded like a unique experience."
The Concert in the Bush is a fundraising initiative of the SANParks Honorary Rangers: Free State Region. The money will be used for conservation projects in Mokala, a park that is home to endangered species such as tsessebe, roan antelope and sable antelope.
