The Smack That singer will be arriving in Karachi and Lahore to perform concerts between April 26- 29.

On the other hand, football legends Ricardo Kaká and Luis Figo have already arrived in Karachi to promote the event. Both the Brazilian and Portuguese soccer players will stay in Pakistan while promoting the 2019 World Soccer Stars event.

The sports event is anticipated to have a star-studded football line-up. That paired with a global music icon Akon and you have the recipe for a great time.
