From Cape Town’s shores to Joburg’s skyline, leading entertainment agency Anything Goes curates 30 summer events, bringing Piano People, Keinemusik, Four Tet, and more for a season of sound, culture, and connection.
With over 30 events scheduled across South Africa and more than 100,000 festivalgoers expected, Anything Goes is setting the stage for a summer that celebrates the rhythm, creativity, and energy of Mzansi – while capturing the attention of the global music world.
Fresh off major successes such as Paradisco: Lady Marmalade in Cape Town and Corona Sunsets Festival in Johannesburg, the culture-entertainment curator now prepares for Halloween featuring Major League DJz (31 October) at the Cabo Beach Club, Cape Town, and an electric lineup that stretches through to Ultra South Africa in April 2026 in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
For over two decades, Anything Goes has built a reputation as Africa’s leading branded entertainment agency, curating experiences that merge global music culture with local creative energy.
This summer’s lineup reads like a cross-continental tour of sound. From Berlin’s renowned collective Keinemusik and British electronic visionary Four Tet, to Australian singer-songwriter Ry X and Canadian producer Blond:ish, Anything Goes cements South Africa’s status as a destination for the world’s top live performers.
“It’s extraordinary to see how international artists see South Africa as an essential stop on the global circuit,” says Shaun Duwe, Founder and CEO of Anything Goes. “This summer is a reflection of that – a fusion of global and local talent performing against some of the world’s most breathtaking backdrops.”
These performances not only elevate South Africa’s cultural footprint but also attract thousands of international travellers – reinforcing the country’s growing role in the global festival economy.
Still, the soul of the season remains unmistakably South African. With homegrown icons like Shimza, Scorpion Kings, DJ Kent, and Major League DJz the Anything Goes’ summer lineup celebrates the artists and audiences shaping the country’s urban soundtrack.
From the deep-house pulse of Kunye to the carefree vibe of Paradisco, and the lifestyle fusion of Corona Sunsets Festival, Anything Goes continues to shape experiences that celebrate the art, diversity, and optimism of South African urban culture.
Each event fuels the creative and tourism economy, boosting local businesses and showcasing the country’s vibrant festival culture to the world.
