The countdown has begun for Braam Culture Fest 2025, and the energy in Johannesburg is impossible to ignore. With just 24 hours until the festival takes over Constitutional Hill in Braamfontein on Saturday, 6 September, organisers have officially unveiled the Phase Two line-up, placing Daliwonga, Sino Msolo and Khuzani at the very top of the bill.
Recognised as Johannesburg’s premier street urban culture celebration, Braam Culture Fest is not just about music — it is about how sound, fashion, food, and art collide to create the ultimate lifestyle experience. Supported by the Department of Sports, Arts and Culture and the Department of Arts and Culture, the festival has carved out its space alongside national favourites like Cotton Fest, Spring Fiesta, and Hey Neighbour.
This year’s Phase Two announcement completes the line-up with a blend of A-list stars and rising talents. Alongside Daliwonga, Sino Msolo, and Khuzani, fans can look forward to sets from Mvzzle, Ntokzin, Kaygee The Vibe, TNK Musiq, Goonflavour, Bizzcuit, Yo. Miyra, Mordecai, Edwin 016, Miss Hilary, Kmass (YFM), Vulelma Weekend, and Pwedy Sawciie (VIP Host). Holding it all together on stage will be the dynamic Phindi Black as MC.
Festival co-founder Siyabonga Mashlangu says the carefully curated line-up is a bold reflection of Johannesburg’s creative energy and a clear signal of the festival’s growing cultural influence.
“Our dream for Braam Culture Fest has always been to build a platform that reflects the true rhythm of Johannesburg. To have artists like Daliwonga, Sino Msolo, and Khuzani leading our line-up alongside new names who represent the next wave is a powerful statement. This is more than entertainment — it is about giving the city a stage where its creativity, diversity, and resilience shine. On 6 September, Constitutional Hill will not just host a festival, it will host the pulse of a generation.”
His fellow co-founder, Khona Mdaki, highlighted the symbolic choice of venue and the festival’s broader role in shaping Johannesburg’s cultural economy.
“Braamfontein is the creative capital of Johannesburg, and Constitutional Hill carries the weight of history and the promise of the future. Hosting Braam Culture Fest here is not an accident — it is a deliberate choice to honour our past while celebrating the energy of today’s youth culture. Beyond the music, this festival is about economic empowerment. It is about local food vendors, fashion designers, sneaker culture, and street artists sharing in the spotlight. This is how culture becomes both celebration and opportunity.”
The festival will unfold across three curated levels: Level 1 for Amapiano and Hip-Hop headliners, Level 2 for Gqom and Afro-house innovators, and Level 3 for underground and up-and-coming talent. Off-stage, festivalgoers can expect sneaker activations, live art installations, pop-up fashion showcases, and a food village that blends township street food with gourmet offerings.
Organisers have also confirmed that safety, accessibility, and inclusivity remain central to their planning, with enhanced event management protocols in place to ensure a secure and welcoming environment for thousands of attendees expected on the day.
