WAFANDE — GIVE ME A SMILE — ANNIVERSARY TOUR 2026

SUPPORT: Kings Ville Records: Lucky Saint + Black Viking + MADI/Doors: 7pm

15 years after the mega hit: Wafande invites you to an anniversary party at RUST both on October 15th and 16th!

In 2011, Wafande broke the sound wall and made Denmark smile and dance with the year's ultimate summer hit, “Gi' Mig Et Smil”. The song was the start of a breakthrough that truly placed him in the hearts of Danes and established him as one of the country's most charismatic and beloved artists.

A lot has happened from then to today. There have been times of decline and times of adversity, but common to all of them has always been optimism.

With his band in the back, Wafande is known as one of the country's absolute strongest entertainers. No concerts are alike, the improvisation is alive and the energy is contagious. However, one thing is always certain: there is a guarantee of a huge party, and maybe Black Dylan will even come by too.

The anniversary tour will be great celebration of the music, memories and positive life energy that started with “Gi' Mig Et Smile” and which can still gather audiences all over the country.

Support: Kings Ville Records (Lucky Saint + Black Viking + MADI)
