Just as his return to the country has been much anticipated, Kaytranada will be performing in South Africa early next year, headlining the first-ever Milk + Cookies Festival SA.
The acclaimed producer and DJ, currently rocking stages worldwide on his Timeless Tour, will perform in Cape Town (The Ostrich) on 5 January and then head to Joburg (Old Park Station) on 11 January 2025.

The festival is the centerpiece of the inaugural Milk + Cookies Music Week South Africa, an 11-day cultural celebration featuring concerts, immersive experiences, artist development programs, and more. Additional details about the music week will be revealed in the coming weeks.
