Grammy Award Winners Purple Disco Machine and Zakes Bantwini lead Corona Sunsets

Cape Town, January 27 th, 2026 – Corona Sunsets Festival returns to the Mother City with one of its most anticipated editions yet, transforming The Glen Country Club, Clifton, into an open-air gathering of
music, art, and nature on Saturday, 21 March 2026, from 12:00 to 23:00.


Leading the line-up is Purple Disco Machine, the Grammy Award-winning German DJ and producer
behind international hits Hypnotized and Fireworks. Ranked among Beatport’s Top 100 Artists of all
time, he brings his euphoric blend of nu-disco and house to Cape Town for a rare South African
performance.


Joining him is a powerful mix of local icons and contemporary trailblazers, including Zakes Bantwini, Sun-El Musician (ahead of his anticipated new album), Msaki, DJ Kent, Liquideep, Mila-Rose, Blakongo, Roz b2b Housewife, Meek, and the Ndlovu Youth Choir, who will deliver a once-off sunset performance setnto be one of the most emotionally resonant moments of the festival.


Beyond the line-up, the festival is designed as a full-day experience rooted in sunset time and its More
Than Music offering, encouraging people to slow down and engage more intentionally with their
surroundings. From immersive art installations and live creative expressions to locally inspired food
offerings, drum circles, and the festival’s signature sunset ritual, Corona Sunsets continues to create
space for shared moments rather than just performances.


“The festival is built around the idea of connection – to music, to nature, and to one another,” says
Melanie Nicholson, Head of Brand: Corona South Africa. “We aim to create an environment where
people feel present and open, and where the experience extends beyond the stage.”
At its core, Corona Sunsets Festival is about creating space – space to pause, to be present, and to
experience music in a way that feels intentional. In a world that rarely slows down, the festival offers a
shared moment shaped by sound, setting, and the simple act of being outdoors together.
