We’re excited to announce that Strictly Soul will be a part of this experience with Aline Media Group turning up the heat at this year’s Durban July with the debut of The Ascots. A bold, world class fusion of music, hospitality, and elevated culinary experiences.

For the first time, the event introduces international headliners to the Durban July stage, featuring Bryson Tiller, Masego, and DJ Mustard, alongside South Africa’s finest, including Shekhinah, Elaine, and Tresor. 

More than just an addition to the calendar, The Ascots marks a defining shift in the Durban July experience. Spanning 4,000sqm across the southern lawns of Greyville Racecourse, the event will host 2,000 guests within a premium, boutique festival setting. The experience showcases the very best of Durban, from standout cuisine by Tyler’s and Tightline Seafood Butcher to world class production by some of South Africa’s leading event teams, all curated to deliver a seamless, high-calibre journey from arrival through to the final act.
