Cotton Festival is back for the fifth edition at the Old Station in Newtown on April 6.
This year's theme #VoteCottonFest will highlight the seventh democratic general elections set to take place on May 29 while giving attendees the expected fun-filled experience.
“Each year the festival theme changes. Last year we focused on sport. This year we focus on voting and how important the community’s voice is in shaping their future. You’ll see this come through in playful ways on the day of the festival,” Bianca Naidoo told TshisaLIVE.
She is committed to continuing the legacy of her late partner Riky Rick. Together, they championed collaboration across music, fashion, lifestyle and sports culture.
“It has been liberating. We have successfully managed to build a movement that is not only linked to a festival but our creative programme initiatives that support our community in the creative field.”
NikNaks, Coke Studios, Vuse, Hunters, Klipdrift, Count Pushkin, 4th Street Wine, NBA, Jägermeister, Youth X by Nedbank and Red Bull have been announced as the official festival partners.
YFM and MTV Base will be the media broadcast partners to showcase the festival.
The line-up of performers across three stages is yet to be announced.
Tickets are on sale at Pick n Pay and Webtickets. Secure yours here. An early bird ticket retails at R200 and a general admission at R300.
