British musician Robbie Williams will be returning to South Africa in early 2025 for Calabash South Africa.
--
However, confirmation of the news on Monday left a number of fans upset.
Organisers of the music festival confirmed at the same time that Calabash South Africa would now be taking place over two days in both Cape Town and Johannesburg.
That represents a change from this year's event which was a one-night affair in both cities.
--
Williams will headline what is now Night 1 in both Johannesburg (18 January 2025) and Cape Town (22 January 2025).
The remainder of the acts on Night 1 will be announced in due course.
As previously announced, rock band Green Day will headline what is now Night 2 on 19 January 2025 in Johannesburg and 23 January 2025 in Cape Town.
--
Additional acts for Night 2 include The Offspring and Fokofpolisiekar.
Fans who rushed out last month to buy tickets for what they assumed was to be the only night in both Johannesburg or Cape Town, will now have to purchase a second ticket if they wish to watch Robbie Williams perform live.
Ticket prices for the popular event run into thousands of rands.
Tickets for Night 1 will go on sale on Friday, 12 April on the Ticketmaster website.
Tickets for Night 2 are already available for purchase.
