Cape Town’s summer favourite returns for New Year’s Eve, with an outdoor concert set among Kirstenbosch’s lush green gardens. As always, the line-up features some of Mzansi’s best-loved artists.
Headlining is singer-songwriter Matthew Mole, known for a blend of indie, folk and pop. He first made his name with his debut album, The Home We Built, and his soulful voice and introspective lyrics have won him a loyal following at home and abroad. Hits such as Take Yours, I’ll Take Mine and Brand New Day explore love, self-discovery and personal growth.
Joining him are Congo Cowboys, a local bluegrass band that blends Congolese kwassa kwassa with traditional Americana for a sound that is unmistakably their own.
Guests bring their own picnic, blanket and drinks, as no alcohol is sold on site, and Kirstenbosch is a non-smoking venue
