Curated by South African music powerhouse and cultural icon DJ Zinhle, Zee Nation Fest 2025 promises an unforgettable experience honouring the strength, influence, and creativity of women in music and beyond. The one-day festival will once again take place at the Nasrec Expo Centre in Johannesburg, welcoming over 10,000 attendees for a day of entertainment.
This year’s lineup features a dynamic mix of South Africa’s top performers, including DJ Zinhle, Focalistic, Thabsie, DBN Gogo, Elaine and more. The event will be hosted by the ever-charismatic Somizi and media personality Moozlie, bringing energy and flair to the stage throughout the day.
