Event information
Music promoter Surfa Rosa takes over District Night Club for a rock and punk-focused Heritage Day eve celebration, built around a full live lineup rather than a themed party. The night is headlined by Afrikaans alternative rock act Karel Bester & Die Kraaines Band, whose frontman is known for the single Sal Jy Saam My Kom Drink.
Support acts span a deliberately varied lineup within the genre, including femme two-piece Elephants Can Remember, post-punk outfit Measurehead and indie-punk trio Cistamatic, alongside DJ sets from Surfa Rosa's own The Kwagga and Disco Darko keeping the night moving between live sets.
The event leans into a straightforward, unpretentious framing, positioning itself as a genuine night of live rock and punk music rather than a themed or gimmick-driven Heritage Day event.
