Black Coffee Brings "Africa Is Not a Jungle" Home to South Africa
Global superstar Black Coffee is bringing his acclaimed "Africa Is Not a Jungle" movement back to South Africa in November. The DJ and producer will headline events in Durban on November 8 and Johannesburg on November 29, promising unforgettable experiences with world-class production and a powerful message celebrating African talent.
Africa Is Not a Jungle: A Movement for Change
"Africa Is Not a Jungle" began as a response to outdated and inaccurate perceptions of the continent. It has since evolved into a global platform, dedicated to showcasing and promoting African music, creativity, and culture on a world stage. The core aim of the movement is to put African talent front and center, and ensure it remains there.
Each "Africa Is Not a Jungle" event is designed to foster a sense of community and connection, allowing attendees to experience the vibrant energy of the continent. The shows emphasize showcasing who Africans are and what they are capable of achieving, according to Black Coffee.
Benefit Concert and Social Impact
This year, "Africa Is Not a Jungle" is partnering with the Black Coffee Foundation to give back to the community. For every ticket sold for the Durban and Johannesburg events, R20 will be donated to the foundation. This money will directly support projects focused on education, the arts, and the development of under-resourced communities across South Africa.
The Black Coffee Foundation runs initiatives in education, the arts, and community development, all aimed at creating long-term opportunities for those in need. Through this partnership, organisers aim to link the festival’s musical celebration with broader efforts to empower and uplift communities. The Johannesburg leg of the tour will form part of the Black Coffee Benefit Concert.
Event Details and Ticket Information
The Durban edition on November 8 will be the first of the two events. Both events are expected to feature a range of African acts alongside world-class production. Tickets for both the Durban and Johannesburg events are available via Howler, with early bird options for the Durban edition nearing sell-out.
