“From Apartheid to Amapiano” - Thirty Years of South African Street Sounds

Join BBC 1Xtra's Eddie Kadi for a night of insightful panel discussions and networking opportunities, as we celebrate the importance of South African music and culture. The all-star panel includes Rosie Gold, Piano People and Mr Showtime!

The South Africa sound has captured hearts around the globe, and Amapiano has been the soundtrack to many of the world’s biggest festivals, remixes and tracks.

The importance of music and culture from South Africa and how it has been used to show a positive outlook on the country since the dark days of apartheid cannot be understated.

A hub of activism, particularly in the fight for equality in South Africa, Camden is the perfect setting to celebrate the genre’s success.

Don’t miss this exclusive event in the stunning surrounds of The Atrium at Stables Market, set within the bustling Camden Market.

Delivered in partnership with Camden Markets, and curated by The Player Maker Group, one of the UK’s leading production companies across events and content.

Doors open at 6pm, with a free welcome drink and networking. Talk starts at 6.30pm.
