Camping and glamping tickets, travel packages and data SIM cards are also still available for ticket holders through the online portal.
This year marks the 18th edition of this proudly Eswatini, authentically African and globally infused festival of music and the arts, which will be held at House On Fire in Malkerns from 30 May to 1 June, 2025.
Eswatini Fire Starters can purchase Full Festival Golden Lounge, Main Arena and Children’s tickets on MoMo WhatsApp Marketplace, although Golden Lounge tickets have moved to Phase 3 already, so festivalgoers are urged to buy now, while stocks last!
These discounted MoMo tickets are a manifestation of the shared commitment maintained by MTN Bushfire and MTN Eswatini to ensure continued access to the festival for EmaSwati.
