Africhili Entertainment, founded by young entrepreneur Simamkele “Sleeze” Mahambehlala, recently announced that it is thrilled to host the second instalment of the Chilli Youth Fest Varsity Edition.
This eagerly awaited event is set for Friday, March 28, at The Gallery on Produce, Gqeberha. Following the success of last year’s inaugural event at the same venue, expectations are high.
“Chilli Youth Fest is more than just an event – it’s a movement aimed at creating jobs and opportunities for the youth,” said founder, Mahambehlala. The festival offers a platform for aspiring local acts to perform alongside established headliners, breaking away from the traditional reliance on large event promoters in the arts industry. “We have taken it upon ourselves as young entrepreneurs, to make things happen for us,” Mahambehlala emphasised.
The Chilli Youth Fest Varsity Edition promises an unforgettable experience, featuring an hour dedicated to showcasing local talent, headlining performances by Cairo CPT, a platinum-selling DJ, along with Cape Town rapper, Dee Koala.
Attendees can expect a celebration of music, culture, and other notable acts, all within a festive atmosphere complete with food, drinks, and entertainment.
Africhili Entertainment has partnered with Madibaz cheerleaders, Tontsi Water, and Enteroot Entertainment to bring this vibrant event to life.
Tickets are available at Webtickets, Pick n Pay, and Boxer Stores. Tickets are priced at R150, and will cost R200 at the door on the day.
Mahambehlala added that the dynamic events company, Africhili Entertainment, is celebrating its 5th anniversary this year. “With a proven track record of successful events in Johannesburg since 2020, the company has expanded its operations to Gqeberha, continuing its mission to empower and inspire through innovative events,” Mahambehlala concluded.
