The Vodafone Festival of the Friendly North committee has confirmed that they have secured a piece of land to build a multipurpose hall in Namara, Labasa.
Speaking at the Friendly North Festival Thanksgiving ceremony, Spokesperson Vincent Sahayam says they have collected $250,000 through the festival and the money will be used to purchase the land and for the building works.
He says the hall will be similar to the Vodafone Arena and will consist of sports facilities and will be available for functions like weddings and birthdays.
Sahayam says if everything works out well then a ground breaking ceremony will take place soon.
