This year’s final of Lowveld Media’s Got Talent was held at Church Unlimited on Saturday June 8, and saw an impressive display from the youth from across Mpumalanga, including Ermelo and eMalahleni.
The annual event, organised by Master Models in conjunction with Lowveld Media, started on Saturday morning and stretched well into the evening to ensure every participant in each category and age group had their time to shine.
