MA Aziz stadium set to host Joy Bangla Concert on Thursday

To mark Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s historic March 7 speech, Chittagong is set to host Joy Bangla Concert 2024 on Friday.

Under the supervision of the Chittagong district administration and the Metropolitan Police (CMP), the MA Aziz Stadium was prepared to welcome the crowds and artists for this grand musical event. The preparations are in their final stages, ensuring a seamless experience for the attendees.

This year's concert lineup includes renowned bands such as Artcell, Nemesis, and Chirkutt, among others, promising a memorable experience for music enthusiasts.

For the first time in its history, the Joy Bangla Concert will take place outside Dhaka, in response to the long-standing requests from the youth for a concert in their region.

This move to Chittagong’s MA Aziz Stadium has been warmly received, with local youths expressing their anticipation and excitement for the event.

Young Bangla has made a unique call for registrations in the local Chatgaiya dialect, inviting attendees to sign up for free through their official Facebook page or website: https://ticket.youngbangla.org/

Registration requires national identification, passport or birth certificate details, along with contact information.

Since its inception in 2015, the Joy Bangla Concert has been a pivotal platform for youth engagement and celebration of Bangladesh's rich cultural heritage, organized by the Center for Research and Information (CRI).

Despite a hiatus during the 2021-2022 pandemic, the concert's return symbolized a resurgence of national spirit and unity under the "Joy Bangla" slogan, echoing the call for unity from the Liberation War era.
