Following the massive success of last year’s sold-out event, multiple award-winning South African DJ and music producer Oskido is excited to officially announce the return of his lifestyle festival BIG DAY OUT, set to take place this November.
An Even Bigger Day Out
“The response to the first Big Day Out blew the team and me away. In 2025, we’re taking it to another level – more artists, more music and more ways to celebrate the diversity of the South Africans we are. This festival is for anyone who’s ever danced to a kwaito beat or lost themselves in a house groove. It’s our story, told through sound, taste, and style. See you in November!” – DJ Oskido
Back with more beats, more flavour and even more vibe, BIG DAY OUT 2025 promises to build on last year’s unforgettable experience by once again bringing together the best of SA music, food and of course culture. Set in the heart of Johannesburg, the festival will be a vibrant fusion of heritage and modernity, showcasing legendary artists, the hottest current acts, paired with a culinary line up as rich and diverse as the sounds on stage.
Following the overwhelming response to the 2024 edition, which saw thousands relive the golden era of kwaito and dance to decades of house hits, Oskido will again focus on the nostalgic magic of yesteryear. It will also bring new school flair to the forefront.
Festival-goers can expect an immersive lifestyle experience complete with deliciously curated food zones, interactive installations, and show-stopping performances from some of the country’s most iconic artists, as well as some newer, young talent.
