This March, Cape Town’s iconic Clifton coastline transforms into a golden-hour playground of rhythm, ritual, and connection. Corona Sunsets Festival returns to The Glen Country Club on Saturday, 21 March 2026, bringing together Grammy-winning Purple Disco Machine and Zakes Bantwini, homegrown sound innovators, and immersive experiences that celebrate music, nature, and community.
Headliners include:
- Purple Disco Machine, the German Grammy-winning DJ and producer of global hits like Hypnotized and Fireworks, bringing his euphoric nu-disco and house to South Africa for a rare live performance.
- Zakes Bantwini, the trailblazing SA icon whose music blends soul, house, and storytelling.
- Sun-El Musician, performing ahead of his anticipated new album.
Msaki, DJ Kent, Liquideep, Mila-Rose, Blakongo, Roz b2b Housewife, Meek, and the Ndlovu Youth Choir, whose exclusive sunset set promises to be one of the festival’s most unforgettable moments.
There’s something magical about playing music as the sun sets, especially in a place as beautiful as Cape Town,” says Purple Disco Machine. “Disco and house music are about joy, freedom, and connection, and Corona Sunsets creates the right environment for that.”
Corona Sunsets isn’t just a festival—it’s a full-day, immersive experience designed around the golden hour. From art installations, live murals, and drum circles, to locally inspired food, Corona Cero bars, and the festival’s signature sunset ritual, every element encourages attendees to slow down, be present, and connect, with music, nature, and one another.
Performing here is more than music; it’s a shared experience,” says Sun-El Musician. “Corona Sunsets has always been about music meeting nature, and this environment lets the music travel differently.“
Melanie Nicholson, Head of Brand: Corona South Africa, adds:
The festival is built around connection, connection to music, to nature, and to one another. We aim to create moments that extend beyond the stage, where people feel open, present, and part of something bigger.”
