Black Coffee Weekender 2026: Peggy Gou’s South African Debut & More

This February 2026 It's Going To Be A Starry Night at the Black Coffee Weekender In Cape Town With Peggy Gou

Cape Town is about to get a serious dose of world-class electronic music with the Black Coffee Weekender, running from 27 February to 1 March 2026. Curated by Grammy-winning DJ Black Coffee, this three-day festival is going to be an unforgettable celebration of music and culture, and it’s got some serious buzz around it. Last years line-up saw WHOMADEWHO make their debut in South Africa and it was massive. 

One of the biggest reasons everyone is talking about next years edition? Peggy Gou is making her South African debut! This is a huge moment for electronic music fans, and honestly, it’s been a long time coming. Peggy first caught our attention back in 2018 with her track “It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)”—that’s when we knew she was a force to be reckoned with. Fast forward to 2026, and she’s finally bringing her signature deep house and techno vibes to South Africa for the first time at the Black Coffee Weekender.

Giving Back Through Music

The Black Coffee Weekender isn’t just about the music—it’s about making an impact. This year’s festival follows the success of the Black Coffee Foundation’s charity event in Johannesburg this past weekend, where Black Coffee continued his mission of empowering youth and supporting local communities. It’s a powerful reminder that music can do more than just entertain—it can inspire change.

What to Expect at the Weekender

• Peggy Gou’s South African Debut: This is the big one. Peggy Gou is known for her smooth, hypnotic grooves and electrifying live performances. After years of anticipation, her set at the Black Coffee Weekender is going to be something special. It’s a rare chance to see her live in South Africa, and we expect the energy to be through the roof.

• Friday Charity Dinner: Kicking off the weekend is an exclusive charity dinner, where you can enjoy an intimate evening of great food, drinks, and conversation—all while supporting a cause that matters. This is more than just a night out; it’s an opportunity to give back and connect with others in a meaningful way.

• Sunday Brunch Afterparty: After a weekend of incredible music, what better way to wind down than with a laid-back Sunday brunch? The afterparty will have all the good vibes, delicious food, and music to keep the weekend going as you relax and reflect on the experience.

• Celebrating Culture and Music: This festival isn’t just about international headliners—it’s a celebration of South African culture, the people, and the music that make this country so unique. From the food to the art to the performances, you’ll get to experience Cape Town like never before.
