Jeffreys Bay will come to life with top performers this Easter weekend.<\/p>\n

The Kouga Easter Festival, set to blow music lovers away, will take place at Dolphin Beach in Jeffreys Bay from Friday, April 15 to Monday, April 18 \u2013 amplifying the festival to a whole new note.<\/p>\n

The record label, Collective Records, has sponsored a power-packed line-up of DJs and musicians from 10:00 to 21:00 for the Saturday and Sunday at the festival tent at Dolphin Beach.<\/p>\n

\u201cKouga Municipality is extremely proud to partner with Collective Records to bring residents and visitors to our beautiful region an unforgettable Easter Festival,\u201d said Kouga Executive Mayor, Horatio Hendricks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout their selfless assistance, this festival would not have been possible. It is thanks to them that the well-known acts will take to the stage at no cost to Kouga Municipality. Come visit us in Jeffreys Bay for a festival created to uplift the Kouga community.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Saturday, April 16, festivalgoers can expect the following confirmed line-up: DJ Jazzy D, Ernie Smith, Jarrad Rickets and Don Vino, DJ Oskido, DJ Zinhle and rapper Early B.<\/p>\n

The entrance fee is R30 per person. Easter Sunday, April 17, is a day dedicated to gospel music, with performances from renowned gospel acts Ntokozo Mbambo, HLE, Khaya Mthethwa, Loyiso Bala, Varonica Meyer, Ernie Smith, Don Vino, Allan, Alton Zakay, Beaulah Eland, Spencer J Kennedy, Cjay, The How Project and Charnell Joseph.<\/p>\n

This free event will be headlined by Collective Records group, and The Jesus Collective.<\/p>\n

The master of ceremonies for both days is Rorisang Thandekiso.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis initiative is the first of many,\u201d says Hilton Petersen, founder of The Jesus Collective and president of Collective Records. \u201cWe will be partnering with more cities in the near future to support community upliftment, from a faith aspect, as well as economically, which I believe go hand-in-hand.\u201d<\/p>\n
