LAHORE : A grand line-up of the second day of the 16th Mystic Music Sufi Festival includes Jawad Bashir, Humaira Channa, Anwar Chinal Zahri, Nighat Chaodhry, Tahseen Sakina, Maham Suhail, Khumariyaan, Wahdat Rameez, Goonga Sian, Mithu Sian, Bushra Marvi, Sabir Sian, Dhol Fusion and Qawwali Orchestra.

On Saturday, the musicians and performers enthralled the spectators and mesmerised the Sufi music enthusiasts at the 16th Mystic Music Sufi Festival, the biggest display of Sufi music and singing in this part of the world.

A diverse cluster of noted Pakistani Sufi singers performed at the festival.

This unique and the biggest congregation of the Sufi music world started with Jawad Bashir and concluded at Qawali Orchestra.

The Mystic Music Sufi Festival has once again proved to be a breath of fresh air for the otherwise tired, hard-hit and wounded souls and minds of our populace. The festival brought together a diverse group of Sufi singers and musicians to showcase a thousands years old heritage. The Rafi Peer Theatre Workshop, the organiser of the festival, believes that the one of the ways to create a place in which global peace could be nurtured was to share the unbiased concept of Sufism that was open to all people and promotes a peaceful coexistence, love and respect for everything.

The Saturday night, being a weekend night, attracted a large number of music lovers to the venue and more people are expected on the last day.
