The annual riverside event has become a staple on the Vaal entertainment calendar, celebrated for its relaxed atmosphere and mix of soul and contemporary local sounds.

Organisers say this year’s edition will feature a stronger lineup and attract a larger crowd. Zonke is expected to deliver an intimate, soulful performance, showcasing the vocal depth and emotional range that have made her a household name.

The festival will also feature performances by Msizi Shembe, T-Bose, Sjava, The Soil, and other artists, offering a dynamic blend of soul, Afropop, and modern local grooves. The variety ensures audiences experience both familiar hits and fresh sounds from South Africa’s top talent.

Event organiser Richard Ramudzuli highlighted the festival’s role as a space for music lovers to connect. “People should come ready to groove, sip and enjoy soul the Belgravia way,” he said. He added that the lineup is carefully curated around genres that audiences engage with regularly, ensuring an inclusive and engaging experience.
