Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76952, member: 636"] DJ Tira just dropped the news that FACT Durban Rocks is getting sold off after this year's New Year's bash. The Afrotainment head honcho said his crew is stepping away from the event after organizing 30 editions since 2011, and the brand hits the market next year. He blamed the city's midnight shutdown rules for making things complicated, saying his team had been watching how officials handled the curfew situation before pulling the trigger on this decision. The final party goes down on New Year's Eve with a 2 pm to 2 am window instead of their usual 6 pm to 6 am marathon sessions. Tira gave shoutouts to everyone who supported the brand through the years, from sponsors like SAB and Schweppes to the fans who showed up regardless of weather conditions. He made it clear that this marks the end of an era for the current organizing partners, but someone else can pick up where they left off once the sale wraps up. [/QUOTE]
