A GEVAARLIKE lineup of local music legends and rising stars will come together for a spectacular celebration of sound and soul this weekend as LRI Productions presents a top-tier Music Showcase this Saturday at Fairbairn College, Goodwood.

This event is a heartfelt tribute to South African talent and musical excellence and the show is designed to uplift, entertain, and remind Capetonians of the world-class artistry rooted in their own communities.

Taking the stage is Idols SA Season 17 winner Berry, Fagrie Isaacs, Sasha-Lee Davids, Robin Pieters, Karin Kortje, and the Sean de Vries Band.

“This is not just a concert, it’s a celebration of our people, our voices, and our stories,” said Lyle Irwin, founder of LRI Productions. 

“We’ve curated a lineup that reflects the heart of Cape Town’s music scene, and we’re bringing it to a stage that feels like home.

“This show is about honouring the incredible talent we have right here in the Western Cape. It’s also about giving audiences an afternoon they’ll never forget. Whether you love gospel, pop, R&B or just great music, you’ll find something that speaks to your heart.”

All roads lead to Fairbairn College in Goodwood this Saturday and tickets are available at Webtickets for R200 general admission and R250 VIP seating. The fun starts at 6pm.

IN HONOUR of Mandela Day the Deen Louw Foundation is hosting "Feed The Music" on Friday, an electrifying extension of its ongoing mission to combat hunger and uplift communities. This isn't just an event; it's a vital step towards achieving the foundation's ambitious goal of acquiring a fully equipped food truck to significantly expand its reach and impact.

The Deen Louw Foundation has been committed to feeding hungry individuals in communities where the need is most urgent. Currently, meal preparations are conducted from a home base, which limits the foundation's ability to efficiently reach and serve more people.

“Imagine a world where hunger is met with immediate action," says Deen Louw. 

“That's the driving force behind the Deen Louw Foundation. We believe a mobile kitchen will revolutionize our operations, allowing us to prepare and serve fresh, nutritious food directly to those in need, especially in remote and underserved areas."

Utopia Cafe and Lounge is the place to be this Mandela Day at 3pm to help bring change one meal at a time.
