About the Event

WAITING FOR UPDATED INFO

Pop sensation Robbie Williams and world-renowned rock band Green Day, along with a stellar line-up of local artists, will take to the stage for two days of electrifying music. The City is thrilled to support the second edition of Calabash South Africa taking place on 22 and 23 January 2025 at DHL Stadium. Read more below:

Calabash South Africa has established itself as the ultimate international music festival.

Known for its diverse line-up, covering genres from pop and rock to electronic and local South African music, Calabash South Africa brings together the biggest artists from across the globe to perform in Cape Town over two days.

Hot off the heels of its inaugural event in 2024, with the likes of Maroon 5 and Meduza, one of Mzansi’s biggest music festivals returns to our shores on 22 and 23 January 2025 at DHL Stadium.

With an impressive track record including six of the Top 100 best-selling albums in British history, a staggering 80 million album sales worldwide, and an incredible 14 Number 1 singles, the sensational Robbie Williams kicks off day one as the headline act.

The Robster, combined with the talents of GoodLuck, Matthew Mole, and Lee Cole, promises an electrifying night of music and memories.

Day two makes history as Green Day, a Grammy-winning trio with a three-decade legacy, performs their debut on South African soil featuring anthem hits like “Basket Case” and “American Idiot.”

Joining them with infectious energy are punk rock icons The Offspring, and homegrown heroes Fokofpolisiekar.
