Launched in 2018, Prime Circle have put together an “all killer, no filler” lineup with a royal flush of South African music giants including The Parlotones, Just Jinjer, Jack Parow, Freshlyground, Mango Groove, Wonderboom and Shut Up It’s Sunday.

“We are so excited for the second Prime Fest. Last year was an amazing experience where we learned a lot and now, we can add and make this year even better. We've put together an incredible lineup of artists who've had great success over the years and this will be the first time we have all played on the same stage and look forward to some exciting collaborations," comments Prime Circle frontman Ross Learmonth.

Music and more

Apart from the star-studded music lineup, this family-friendly festival combines an outdoor experience with a dedicated kids play area and a wide range of stalls.

Cooler boxes and picnic baskets are not permitted but there will be sufficient food stalls to fill your stomachs and a bar and beer garden to quench your thirst.

In between the music acts, why not sneak some alone time in at Just Haven’s Nomadic Spa in their billowing draped gazebos and enclosed fragrant treatment rooms for a 30-minute head, neck and shoulder massage or foot/hand massage for R100 or a 60-minute full-body or back and neck massage for R200. There will also be a Vape Truck and InStep Jozi stall for you to browse through.

And what would a proudly South African music and lifestyle festival be without showing the love for a few of our local charity organisations including Woodrock Animal Rescue, Owl Rescue & Rehabilitation and RADA.

Parking is free with Williams Hunt Isuzu providing a complimentary shuttle service.

Patrons are urged not to drink and drive. Prime Fest has partnered with Road Trip – a national chauffeur and cab service with a 24-hour call centre facility. The public must ensure that their drivers drop and collect from the correct location point at the venue, which will be well-lit and monitored by security.

Patrons are reminded that umbrellas will only be allowed in designated areas. There will be no gazebos allowed so as not to block the stage view for other attendees. Camp chairs are permitted.

Tickets are available through Computicket.
