HEY NEIGHBOUR FESTIVAL moves dates
Hey Neighbour Festival 2025, initially scheduled to take place this August, has been rescheduled for December 2025. While the festival was set to feature world-class performances, including highly anticipated appearances by Doja Cat, Central Cee, Black Coffee, and Leon Thomas, among others, the organisers have made the strategic decision to reschedule it to ensure its continued success and sustainability.
Hey Neighbour’s Glen Netshipise stated,
“As CEO of Hey Neighbour Festival, I want to acknowledge the disappointment caused by the postponement of the 2025 event. We understand the impact this has on our loyal festival-goers, sponsors, and artists. We also recognise that our communication about the challenges we’ve faced hasn’t been as clear as it should have been, and for that, we sincerely apologise. Moving forward, we are committed to enhancing our transparency and communication, ensuring that everyone remains informed as we work towards delivering an even better festival in December 2025. We truly appreciate your continued support and patience as we navigate these challenging yet exciting times.”
He added, “We are incredibly grateful for the support of our sponsors, artists, and attendees. Their faith in us is helping to ensure that we can deliver the best possible festival experience.”
