Award-winning media personality DJ Sabby, born Sabelo Mtshali, will return to SABC 1 on March 21st to host the broadcast of the Corona Sunsets Festival in Cape Town. Building on the massive success of the Johannesburg edition, the Metro FM Best Mornings presenter is leveraging his extensive live broadcasting expertise to deliver one of South Africa’s most distinctive open-air lifestyle events straight into homes nationwide.
A Full-Circle Moment for the Acclaimed Host
Known for steering major national events like the South African Music Awards and SABC 1’s New Year’s Eve Last Dance, DJ Sabby is ready to bring his signature flair and deep musical knowledge back to the festival stage. Says DJ Sabby: “Returning to host the Corona Sunsets Festival in Cape Town feels like a full-circle moment.
