The partnership between Afropunk and Constitution Hill is one which is born from a shared spirit and shared values – both represent a triumph of inclusion, multi-culturalism and equality for people of all races, genders, colours and creed. Afropunk celebrates black culture within an openness to multiculturalism, making it a perfect fit for a precinct like Constitution Hill that commemorates what a brutal culture of un-constitutionalism did to South Africa, and is now the home of the Constitution that secures South Africans’ rights.

In preparation for Afropunk, Constitution Hill has launched a unique tourism collective, I am Joburg for both local and international festival goers that will descend on Johannesburg this festive season. The website is a curated collection of unique experiences and tours celebrating Johannesburg’s diverse cultures and people. From walking and cycling tours of Johannesburg’s iconic neighbourhoods to unique culinary and cultural experiences, I am Joburg is about celebrating and supporting Johannesburg's local tourism and creative entrepreneurs who make the city unique.
