IT is the first of its kind in South Africa and the Capsule Fest will not disappoint in offering an incredible platform that celebrates SA street culture in all its forms. The event will take place on Saturday, September 16 at the Mary Fitzgerald Square in Newtown and will host a music concert among an array of street culture activities including a charity celebrity basketball tournament, a skate park, brand pop-up stores, art installations, customising booths, a beer garden and food village, a gaming area and a VIP deck.

The concert, which is the biggest attraction, will be supported by a myriad of over 30 local artists and DJs. There will be two music stages: the main stage for the big name acts and the Waves Stage for up-and-coming indie acts and DJs. Confirmed headliners are SA’s own Nasty C alongside A$AP Mob’s member A$AP Ferg. They will be supported by the likes of Sho Madjozi, DJ Speedsta, Da Les, Gemini Major and Yanga.
“The street culture scene in SA has never been this big and impactful, yet the industry lacks a safe and family-friendly event that brings all these street culture elements together in one place. We believe the Capsule Fest offers the market just that and hence we’re super-excited to host the first of what will hopefully be many editions to come,” said Sportscene’s Head of Marketing Jonathan Muir.
The full line-up will be announced closer to the fest date. For more information visit: www.capsulejhb.co.za
