The concert, which was dubbed In His Praises Encounter 1 with Thembinkosi Nyoni, brought Christians together.
The concert saw various artistes including Oscar, Taliah, Siza, Lantong, Yolanda and Gospel Maniacs mesmerising the crowd.
Nyoni, clad in all-white attire, staged an extraordinary performance singing 10 songs from his three albums.
The audience danced and sang along to some of his tracks including UmuJehova, Wakamurena, UyiNkosi Yamakhosi and Zincane Izibongo.
Nyoni told NewsDay Life & Style on the sidelines of the show that he was excited to see such a crowd.
“I was not expecting such a crowd honestly, but just to be trusted by the few for a start it gives a lot of confidence to carry on,” he said.
