Prime Fest is officially returning for its highly anticipated third edition. Hosted by Prime Circle, REAL, and Jacaranda FM, this massive celebration of South African live music takes over Syringa Park at Avianto Estate this October.
Prime Fest III features the Ultimate Live Music Line-up
Building on the massive success of previous editions that drew up to 8,000 fans and featured heavyweights like Mango Groove, The Parlotones, Jack Parow, Freshlyground, Just Jinjer, and Shut Up It’s Sunday, Prime Fest III is bringing 11 hours of non-stop entertainment.
The 2026 line-up features Jeremy Loops, Prime Circle, Jesse Clegg, GoodLuck, Lee Cole, Zaan Sonnekus, Martin Bester & Band and CANVYR.
Built on Real Relationships
For Prime Circle bassist Marco Gomes, the festival was born from a desire to create an event the band would actually want to attend.
He describes it as one massive party with all their friends in the industry. Roddy Quin of REAL adds that the lineup proves what happens when a festival is built on genuine relationships rather than a corporate formula.
Jacaranda FM will also be broadcasting live from the venue, placing their millions of listeners right at the heart of the action.
Celebrating 25 Years of Prime Circle
This year’s festival arrives during a major milestone for Prime Circle, celebrating over a quarter of a century in the music industry.
The multi-platinum rockers recently took home the 2025 Afri-Indie Award for Best Rock Album for their latest release, The World We Know.
Having shared stages globally with icons like Metallica, Seether, Live, and Collective Soul, the band is ready to deliver their signature world-class energy to their homegrown crowd.
