As tickets officially go on sale, Ballito BIG Week has announced the star-studded line-up party-goers can expect at this year’s bash.
From 22 December 2022 to 1 January 2023, Ballito locals and holidaymakers can choose from an incredible mix of events, music and line-ups designed to cater to everyone in Mzansi’s eclectic music scene, Ballito BIG Week is set to make its mark in a big way.

“We’re thrilled to announce our diverse and eclectic line-up for what promises to be an exciting Ballito BIG Week,” says Greg Walsh, owner of G&G Production. “Ballito is such a popular holiday destination with many tourists – and for good reason. However, BIG entertainment has yet to entertain these parts of the coast. This is why we wanted to bring South Africa’s best acts to Ballito this year. With a mission to orchestrate BIG events that appeal to everyone, we couldn’t be more thrilled and proud to unveil this line-up.”
Ballito BIG Week will take place at the Ballito Cane Fields (D173 Esenembi Rd, Dolphin Coast, 4399) between 17h00 and 02h00 unless otherwise specified.
