South Africa’s biggest arena rock show is back for the 6th time at SunBet Arena, Times Square (Pretoria) on Friday, 3 October 2025.
“I can’t believe that we’re doing this for the 6th time in Pretoria! Since the first show, each and every one of you has shown up to make this massive arena rock show a reality. This is something that we have created together - for us and our friends. What a vibe! Are you ready for the best night of 2025?” Francois van Coke
The Francois van Coke & Vriende concerts famously feature artists and bands Francois has collaborated and released music with - making this not only unique but also the biggest night in SA Rock.
This year, however, Francois decided to mix things up. He is a big fan of upcoming artist Booshle G and although they haven’t collaborated (yet?), he decided to invite Booshle G to join the line-up.
Another new face this year is singer-songwriter, Ryno Velvet. Ryno and Francois will be performing their hit single ‘’Aande’’ from Francois’ latest album, Die Ruimte.
The Prince of Pretoria, Zaan Sonnekus, and Van Pletzen make a welcome comeback to this world-class production. Francois’ collaboration with Van Pletzen, “Kakmal”, is epic live and “the closest thing to “Bohemian Rhapsody” we’ve ever made,” according to Peach van Pletzen.
There are a lot of other favourites to look forward to on this stellar line-up, so get your tickets quick because they sell out every year!
Die Vriende for 2025 are:
• Spoegwolf
• Karen Zoid
• Jack Parow
• Fokofpolisiekar
• Die Heuwels Fantasies
• Booshle G
• Zaan Sonnekus
• Van Pletzen
• Tasché
• Ryno Velvet
• Hunter Kennedy
This two hour rock spectacular is backed by Francois’ band, Die Gevaar.
Another authentic AMP experience in partnership with Castle lite, Jacaranda FM, Chery and Lift.
