The event will also host vibrant DJ sets from some of the bestdisc jockeys in the game, including Amapiano sensation Uncles Waffles and more.

Curated across three different stages, the LadiesLoveHipHop Festival will give visitors a rich and expansive experiential weekend, not only courtesy of the amazing line-up of female artists that have been highlighted to perform, but the festival will also offer rich food, exciting art installations and exhibitions, in addition to the much anticipated live performances. As the date nears closer, more acts are promised to be announced and will feature women at varying stages of the professional music careers.
