The Gathering brings South Africa's political powers to the stage

Styli Charalambous, CEO and publisher of Daily Maverick says, “It’s been surreal to watch the growth of this event from its first iteration in front of 150 people into the juggernaut it is today. We could not get bigger names to an event like this and every year seems to improve on the high standards set before. People are blown away by the intensity, passion and vibe this event seems to create. From the speakers, performers and even the attendees, the buzz is like nothing you have ever experienced at a conference. Unlike other events, you won’t want to miss a single session.”
Speakers are offered a short opportunity to address the audience, before the team of journalists do what they do best - interrogate and evaluate. Keeping things edgy, in true Daily Maverick style, the event is hosted by John Vlismas with serious discussions interspersed with doses of culture and satire from Lebo Mashile and Deep Fried Man.
