A LOT TO LOOK FORWARD TO Following the successful Cape Town edition, the highly anticipated Cotton Fest Johannesburg will once again merge both established and young emerging local talents performing live across three energy packed stages.

Founded to showcase the diversities in various popular music genres with the aim of fusing the gaps within the different local movements, the event platform also celebrates fashion and sport.

Phase two of ticket sales is live, but tickets are selling fast.

As always, the entertainment-filled festival will include various other lifestyle elements to keep the crowd entertained including a retail fashion store (The Tuckshop), a love skating competition (Unconventional Sports Arena), a food court (University Cafeteria), a customisation station, a half-court basketball court and a live art installation.

The festival will this year also see an expansion of its footprint, with a new space inside the festival space known as The Lot, via a partnership between Cotton Fest and JHC Housing
