The three-time Grammy Award-winning Soweto Gospel Choir proudly presents JOY, a thrilling new concert event that celebrates the spirit of South Africa through music, dance, and unshakable faith. Having seen them perform at De Roma in 2022, we know that the Soweto Gospel Choir’s joy is palpable from the front row right to the back.
JOY pays tribute to Nelson Mandela’s enduring legacy, honouring the songs and anthems of his freedom struggle alongside spine-tingling gospel harmonies and beloved contemporary classics. Audiences are taken on a powerful and uplifting journey — from the heartbeat of South African freedom songs to soaring spirituals and iconic hits by Miriam Makeba, Hugh Masekela, Sam Cooke, and Leonard Cohen.
Formed to share the inspirational power of South African gospel music with the world, the Soweto Gospel Choir has earned international acclaim for their radiant harmonies, infectious energy, and heartfelt performances. The Choir continues to receive standing ovations, major awards, and rave reviews in theatres and concert halls around the globe.
