His White Party has grown into a popular annual celebration, attracting a wide range of music fans and performers.

According to Banda, the presence of these artists will make the event special and unforgettable for attendees.

Banda, who was born on 2 February, said the celebration is not just about music but also about gratitude and reflection on his life journey. He expressed his appreciation to God for giving him a long and healthy life and thanked the people who have supported him throughout his career.

“I want to thank everyone who has supported me in my life. We live only once in this world, and I felt it was wise to celebrate while I am still strong and healthy,” said Banda.

He also explained that the White Party has a unique identity because of its elegant theme, where guests are encouraged to dress in white. Over the years, the event has become a symbol of joy, unity, and appreciation of music, attracting people from different backgrounds. Banda believes that such events play an important role in strengthening Malawi’s creative industry by giving artists a platform to showcase their talent.
