The V&A Waterfront’s Makers Landing is thrilled to bring all Jazz lovers Friday Night Jazz at Makers Landing taking place every second and third Friday of the month.

“Jazz music has been an integral part of social gatherings in South Africa, particularly in urban areas like Cape Town. Both food and jazz are platforms of expression linked to culture, history and commentary. At Makers Landing this Winter, we want to create a vibrant, intimate atmosphere that brings people together by joining live music and food resulting in an enjoyable multi-sensory experience,” says Donald Kau, spokesperson for the V&A Waterfront.

Visitors can look forward to an exciting line-up for August:

Two music giants, Sjava and Big Zulu will unite and bring a never-before-seen collaboration concert on Saturday, 26 August at The Big Top Arena, Carnival City.

Inkabi Zezwe, an IsiZulu term of endearment that when used in the context of music, describes a unified brotherhood that is representative and reflective of the nation. Zezwe means 'of the nation'.

The intermingling of traditional IsiZulu musical forms with contemporary music is the confluence at which the two artists meet; Sjava makes his way through African Trap and Afro-Soul while Big Zulu boisterously asserts by way of Hip-Hop.

The collaborative album between Sjava and Big Zulu highlights the rich tapestry of complex IsiZulu identities, its people, and its ambition.

Doors open at 6pm and event starts at 7pm. 

Internationally recognised and award-winning South African rapper and songwriter, Kwesta, will celebrate 16 years in the music industry on Saturday, 12 August at The Big Top Arena, Carnival City.

The tour kicked off with 15 shows in and around Gauteng is building up to the 16thand final show at Carnival City. This is where the hitmaker will be joined by other star-studded artists.

Kwesta has worked with big names such as international singer Wale on the multi-platinum selling single ‘Spirit’ as well as Grammy-Award-Winning Rapper, Rick Ross and Rich Homie Quan.
