Lefra’s popular Country Legends and Country Legends and Friends concerts have entertained music fans over the years and were presented annually at Carnival City under the direction of the “Big Daddy” of South African country music, Lance James.
But early in 2020, Lance’s voice became silent forever.
Lefra decided to pay tribute to Lance James and Country Legends broadcasted in June. Country Legends and Friends will follow on August 29 at 17:00.
All bookings can be done at itickets.co.za or lefra.com at only R180 per ticket per household.
The Lefra Cellar Concerts are presented with the support of Ambassador Execudrive, Angels Place Boutique Guesthouse, Britz Couriers and Removals, Hollywood Costumes, RSG, Sounds Good, Stable Inn Conference Centre and Wedding Venue, Van Loveren Wines and WS Pianos.
Lefra has a special offer, if you want to book for five Cellar Concerts at a time you only pay R450.
After Country Legends and Friends, master actor Johny Klein brings the Sandveld and its people to your living room in Die Pomporrelkonsert on September 5. André, the Hilarious Hypnotist will be at the Cellar Concert on September 12. Stage hypnosis in South Africa equals André.
André has been performing throughout South Africa for the past two decades and continues to entertain audiences with his laugh-out-loud performances now also online.
On September 19, Lizz Meiring will entertain audiences in Elke Ander Duim ‘n Dame. Get ready to sing along and dance with Pieter Smith on September 26 in his production Van Haas Das tot Stukkie Van der Merwe.

Looking back
Lefra’s first Country Legends concert was staged in Carnival City’s Big Top Arena on August 5 in 2006 and tickets sold out within weeks of sales.
The royals of South African country music came together in one of the biggest country music shows ever.
The resounding success of the Country Legends concerts continued annually and in 2008 changed to Country Legends and Friends.
The concert in June of that year was also recorded and united legends and friends Lance James, JJ Stephens, Jason Bradley, Cheree, Matt Hurter, Barbara Ray, Alan Ladd, Bobby Angel, Tommy Dell and the Rodeo Girls in the biggest country concert yet! Vrouekeur described the concert as a “country carnival” and tickets were also sold out!
