Dance music fans are in for an incredible party as worldwide electronic music heavyweight Diplo heads to Johannesburg for One Night With Diplo at 1 Fox on 23 April.
Diplo has crafted an impressive career as a musician, DJ and producer. The Grammy Award-winning producer has proven himself to be a ubiquitous cultural figure, consistently bridging high and low, mainstream and underground with remarkable tact and reverence.
Diplo has contributed to a number of chart topping songs including Hold Up and All Night on Beyoncé’s highly acclaimed Lemonade album. Last year also saw the DJ contribute to Major Lazer’s Cold Water track featuring Justin Bieber and MØ which debuted at number one on the iTunes songs chart in 58 countries worldwide and reached number one on the US pop radio chart.

The collaboration with DJ Snake, titled Lean On, featuring MØ became the most successful independently released song of all time after peaking at number one on the Top 40 chart and being certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
One Night with Diplo is set to be an unforgettable event as the music producer is joined by a selection of South Africa’s top electronic acts hosted across two stages – The Fox Junction Main Stage and The Goodluck Bar Stage – each setup with a massive lighting and production rig delivering an explosive visual and sonic experience.
Excited for his South African show, which forms part of his Africa Tour 2017, Diplo said, “So hyped to head back to Kenya and now Uganda, Ethiopia, Nigeria, [and] South Africa. [It has] been a few years and we have had a few tours since then. Africa is always on another level.”
Don’t miss out on this opportunity. Electronic dance music (EDM) fans will experience one of the world’s most widely recognised EDM producers in Johannesburg.
