Soul Fest comes to a thrilling end in Karachi

Widely regarded as the most prominent and biggest music and food festival on Pakistan’s social calendar, Soul Fest’s latest iteration in Karachi came to a glittering and star-studded conclusion last weekend. Heralded as being the perfect nexus point of the best Pakistan has to offer from a cuisine and music stand-point, Soul Fest Karachi ran this year from 9th to 11th December. The fact that it was spread out over a three-day period meant that visitors and families had plenty of opportunities to make a trip to Beach View Park in order to attend the event and join in with the festivities. While the event had plenty of foot outlets and stalls to choose from for those wishing to satiate their appetites, there is no denying the primary draw of Soul Fest are the performances of the musicians and bands. What sets Soul Fest apart from other food-centric festivals is the fact that it serves as a concert venue too. The event boasted of a bevy of talented musical artistes who had audiences enthralled across the three-day duration of the gathering. Kashmir, Ali Tariq, Safeer Jaffery and Sahara UK were some of the artistes who performed at Soul Fest, while Bilal Maqsood also graced the stage as the main attraction. The event was hosted by Dino Ali and Sophiya Anjam, who kept the show flowing in a smooth manner. One of the headline grabbers at Soul Fest this time was Farhan Saeed, who sang on stage as the audiences grooved along to his soulful voice. After the success of Soul Fest in Karachi and Lahore this year, the festival is now headed to Islamabad.
