Johannesburg has rapidly become a sought-after destination for dance music fans (or as they’re colloquially referred to in South Africa: groovists). The city has nurtured innovative genres such as kwaito, Afro house, gqom and amapiano, while also incubating legendary clubs like Truth, Carfax and And Club. Today, Johannesburg thrives with a diverse blend of intimate lounges, spacious clubs and underground warehouse spaces. The historic Constitutional Hill, The Nest and Victoria Yards have all become prime spots for local promoters, with club nights like Vogue Nights and P_ssy Party boldly claiming space for marginalised clubbers seeking safer spaces. With its rich musical heritage and vibrant scene, Johannesburg’s electronic music landscape is a reflection of the city’s unbridled energy and creative spirit.
