AFRIKAANS IS LEKKER 2026
Kom kuier saam met jou gunsteling Afrikaanse kunstenaars in Christchurch, Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane en Perth in Augustus.
Appel, the moniker of Christoph Kotzé, is redefining the Afrikaans music scene, crafting hit after hit that serves as the ultimate soundtrack to the weekend across South Africa. Known for his lyrical storytelling and powerhouse collaborations, Appel has penned iconic tracks for legends like Theuns Jordaan, Karlien van Jaarsveld, EDEN, Bok van Blerk, Laurika Rauch, and Jo Black just to name a few. His songs are more than hits—they’re anthems woven into the fabric of South African life.
Bernice is a groundbreaking artist who seamlessly blends genres, creating a unique sound that captivates audiences worldwide. With influences ranging from jazz to electronic music, her compositions tell stories that resonate with listeners on a deep emotional level.
Elvis Blue is a South African storyteller whose songs remind us of faith, family, and the beauty of ordinary life.
Kom kuier saam met die ongelooflike kunstenaars en jou gemeenskap in Augustus. Kaartjies sal beskikbaar wees by South African Events se webwerf www.southafricanevents.com vanaf Vrydag 13 Maart. Afrikaans is Lekker word moontlik gemaak deur die ondersteuning van Afriforum Wereldwyd en die mense wat dit geniet.
