It involved serving food to approximately 51,000 local residents, and it is expected to continue for several days. Festivities will kick-start on Friday evening with an event titled, ‘An Evening in Everland.’ Given that Rihanna’s last performance was at the 2023 Super Bowl when she was pregnant, fans are pumped to see videos from the event.
