LIGHTHOUSE x CTEMF: A Game-Changing Collaboration Brings Moodymann to South Africa
On 22 February 2025, South Africa’s electronic music scene will witness a historic moment as LIGHTHOUSE Festival and Cape Town Electronic Music Festival (CTEMF) join forces for the first time. Set against the backdrop of the DHL Stadium concourse in Green Point, Cape Town, this day-to-night event promises an unparalleled festival experience, headlined by none other than the legendary Moodymann, who will be making his South African debut.
A Fusion of Two Powerhouses
This partnership marks a new era for electronic music in South Africa. LIGHTHOUSE Festival, renowned for its immersive festival experiences in Austria, Croatia, and South Africa, brings its signature “electronic music on vacation†concept to the city. Meanwhile, CTEMF, South Africa’s premier electronic music festival since 2012, has built a reputation for blending performance with development, offering workshops, lectures, and artist showcases in both urban and township settings.
By shifting from beachside locations to the expansive indoor-outdoor spaces of DHL Stadium, LIGHTHOUSE x CTEMF is set to redefine the festival experience, combining world-class production with an electrifying atmosphere.
Moodymann: A Visionary Making History in Cape Town
Leading the lineup is Moodymann (Kenny Dixon Jr.), one of Detroit’s most influential and elusive house music pioneers. Known for his genre-blending sound, which fuses deep house, soul, funk, and jazz, Moodymann has cultivated a cult following with releases on his own KDJ Records and Mahogani Music, as well as Peacefrog and Planet-E. His deeply emotive and unapologetically raw sound has shaped global electronic music for decades.
Now, for the first time, South African audiences will experience his unparalleled energy and soul live, an unmissable moment for fans of house music.
A Defining Moment for SA’s Electronic Music Scene
This next-level festival experience is more than just a collaboration, it is a game-changer. Bringing together two of the most innovative forces in electronic music, LIGHTHOUSE x CTEMF is set to elevate South Africa’s festival landscape.
Mark your calendars for 22 February 2025, because this is one festival you do not want to miss.
