This event had so many issues I can't even start to explain. The fact that this event even happened was a miracle. Thank you so match for your support. I am nothing but grateful. I am humbled and overwhelmed. I wanna come back next year, he said.
THE FILL UP DREAM The #FillUpMmabathoStadium is the sixth instalment of Nyovest's first trademark Fill Up concert, which started at The Dome in 2015 with 20 000 fans in attendance.
He then filled up Orlando Stadium in 2016, followed by the FNB Stadium in 2017. He then took his concert it to KwaZulu-Natal to fill up Moses Mabhida in 2018 and the Royal Bafokeng Stadium in 2019.
The Banana ba Stout hitmaker took this year's Fill Up to his hometown in Mafikeng at the Mmabatho Stadium.

One tweep was amazed by Nyovest's creative stunts during his Fill Up performances.
Cassper really takes risks: from floating stages at the dome, to jumping off the stage at FNB Stadium, he ziplined to the top of the stadium performing Tito Mboweni at Mose Mabhida, you think it would get crazier boom his performing on the score board at Mmabatho Stadium.
