The countdown to Njalos at the Hollywoodbets Durban July 2026 is officially on, and Makubenjalo, partnering with Martell and OMODA, just dropped the entertainment lineup for this year's experience. I sat down with Lungelo Zwane, OMODA & Jaecoo Brand and Marketing Manager, to get the scoop.
This year's lineup is stacked with South African music heavyweights: Kabza De Small, Kwesta, DJ Sox, Uncool MC, DJ Bongz, Leehleza, Vetkoek vs Mahoota, DJ Stokie, and DJ Amanda. The legendary Boom Shaka will also hit the Njalos stage. They'll keep the energy going from first arrivals through the late-night celebration.
**On the Partnership:**
"Last year, we stood with our customers and ambassadors, but this year we rallied some giants. It's OMODA, Martell, and Makubenjalo—three unlikely brands shaking up July 2026. A trio of powerhouses."
**On Fashion and Culture:**
"Fashion is a huge pillar for OMODA—along with beauty and art. Last year, Makubenjalo's marquee stood out to me. I saw that energy and knew I wanted a brand that matched our vibe—young, useful, artistic, fashion-forward. This is a full-circle moment for us."
**What to Expect:**
"If you don't have a ticket yet, you're going to miss out. Expect a fun time, responsible vibes, fashion-forward energy, and incredible music. We've got legends and every genre covered. People can expect a top-tier, premium experience."
