The late Nelson Mandela had this view of living freely; “For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
Celebrations will take place around the country to celebrate Freedom Day, and in Johannesburg, many events are scheduled.
Back to the City music festival, in its sixth year running, promises to entertain up to 14 000 people with music and art. It will take place on the corner of Bree and Henry Nxumalo streets.
The Lyric Theatre will play host to singer Sibongile Khumalo in the concert, Breath of Life and will showcase her music from the past 20 years.
