Celebrate the end of 2024 and the start of a new year with an unforgettable evening of music and joy at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden. Rising stars Will Linley and Lloyiso will bring a spectacular New Yearโs Eve concert as part of the beloved Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concerts.
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Table Mountain, this special New Yearโs Eve event promises an uplifting and electrifying atmosphere, blending two extraordinary talents for one incredible night of music. Donโt miss the opportunity to welcome 2025, surrounded by friends, family, and world-class entertainment under the summer sky.
This seasonโs concerts are presented in partnership with several valued supporters, including the City of Cape Town, whose collaboration plays a vital role in bringing these magical evenings to life. Their support underscores a commitment to fostering vibrant arts and cultural experiences in the city, cementing Cape Town as a global destination for live entertainment.
Headliner for this concert, Will Linley, the 23-year-old singer-songwriter, burst onto the scene with his effervescent debut single โMiss Me (When Youโre Gone),โ capturing hearts worldwide and amassing nearly a million streams within weeks. Hailing from Cape Town and inspired by iconic local events like Kirstenbosch concerts, Will channels heartfelt lyrics and captivating melodies into relatable pop anthems. With a growing global fanbase and a fresh, authentic sound, Will Linley is one of South Africaโs most exciting new artists.
Reflecting on the significance of performing at Kirstenbosch, Will Linley shares, โGrowing up in Cape Town, I dreamed of playing a concert at Kirstenbosch. Itโs such an iconic venue that holds so many special memories for me, and Iโm beyond excited to celebrate New Yearโs Eve on that stage with everyone.โ
Hailing from Port Elizabeth, award-winning artist Lloyiso has captivated audiences worldwide with his powerhouse vocals and emotionally resonant performances. Signed to Universal Music Group South Africa/Republic Records, heโs garnered accolades, including the 2023 SAMA Award for Best Pop Album. Lloyisoโs international collaborations, like โReal Loveโ with Martin Garrix and his platinum-certified EP โSeasons,โ showcase his dynamic artistry and broad appeal.
Commenting on the upcoming performance, Lloyiso notes, โThereโs no better way to say goodbye to 2024 and hello to 2025 than sharing music with an audience that inspires me. Kirstenbosch is more than just a venue; it symbolises unity and celebration. Iโm thrilled to join Will Linley for what I know will be an unforgettable night. Letโs make memories together, singing and dancing into the new year!โ
Speaking ahead of the concert, JP Smith, Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security at the City of Cape Town, shares his excitement for the event, โThe Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concerts are an essential part of Cape Townโs festive season and cultural calendar. Hosting an event with incredible talents like Will Linley and Lloyiso is a fitting way to ring in the new year in one of the most stunning venues in the world. This concert will be a celebration of the hope, unity, and creativity that Cape Town embodies.
