The global Milk + Cookies Festival is back in Cape Town after attracting over 50,000 attendees at its first two editions. Known for its unpredictable lineup of world-famous international stars, the festival is one of the year’s biggest music events.
The 2027 edition has just been announced, following the first two festivals that brought Canadian DJ sensation KAYTRANADA and American rapper Gunna to the Mother City. Both were big successes, letting Cape Town audiences experience two global music sensations live for the very first time. The 2027 headliner is yet to be announced.
Beyond the music festival, Milk + Cookies Music Week brings a range of events and performances to beloved Cape Town venues in the lead-up to the big show. The programme highlights food, fashion, art, and design, with panels, workshops, pop-ups, and parties running alongside the traditional acts.
