With less than 24 hours till gates open to the Biggest Trade and Entertainment Show in the South Pacific, the stage, booths, and exhibitors are ready for Fiji Showcase 2017.

Organizer Total Events Company Manager, Loretta Jackson says people who have never been to Fiji Showcase have the perfect opportunity tomorrow as it is a long weekend.

She says everything is based on international standards.

The JGEEKS who are one of New Zealand's hottest metro Maori entertainment acts hopes to stun audiences at this year’s Fiji Showcase with their unique Maori 'tongue in cheek' fusion of high energy, high impact dance, music, singing, skits and pop culture unlike ever seen before.

JGEEKS who were finalists in New Zealand’s Got Talent will be arriving into the country this afternoon ahead of the Fiji Showcase 2017 that begins tomorrow.

Group founder Jermaine Leef who is a former Disney Channel Live presenter and Cleo Bachelor of the Year 2011 Finalist, credits his musician dad and singing star mum for the fact he's a born performer.

Along with Marino Taiatini, Ricky Flavell and Eru Bennet‑Paul, the metro‑Maori group's sound is a mix of electro‑Nintendo pop groove.

The JGEEKS will be performing in Fiji for the first time on the Vodafone External stage at Fiji Showcase 2017 at 2.30pm tomorrow.

The ticket price for this year’s Fiji Showcase have been maintained and the tickets are $4 for adults and $3 for children.

Fiji Showcase will start at 10am on the National Sports and Wellness Day public holiday tomorrow and will run till the 8th of July.
