Mzansi, we outside this April! Grammy-winner Ella Mai is coming to South Africa. See the full lineup and ticket details here.

Johannesburg, pack your bags and get ready to sing your heart out because the R&B vibes are about to hit an all-time high. This April, the incomparable Ella Mai is landing in South Africa for two exclusive dates, and the energy is already electric.
Whether you’re a "Boo’d Up" day-one, or you’ve had her brand-new album Do You Still Love Me on a permanent loop, these shows are set to be the highlight of the 2026 concert calendar.
While she isn’t performing in the heart of the city, the R&B queen is setting up camp just two hours away at the legendary Sun City Superbowl on Saturday, 25 April 2026, before heading to the Grandwest in Cape Town on the 26th. If you were looking for a sign to book that long-weekend getaway, this is it.
This isn't just a concert; it’s a cultural collision. Ella Mai’s performance is the centrepiece of the Konka Kulture Weekend at the Sun City Superbowl. In a rare fusion of global R&B and local powerhouse talent, she will be joined on stage by a star-studded South African roster including Sjava, Nasty C, Zee Nxumalo, Scorpion Kings, Uncle Waffles, and Oscar Mbo.
Ella is bringing the full experience of her brand-new album, DYSLM (Do You Still Love Me). We’ve all been streaming "Things" and "Tell Her" on repeat, but hearing those harmonies live while surrounded by the luxury of Sun City? That’s how memories are made. Whether you’re actually "Boo’d Up" or just "Outside" with your best friends, this is the music link-up of 2026.
