Joyous Celebration

Joyous Celebration has provided South Africans and the world with a mellifluous and harmonious musical feast for the last 28 years. The award-winning ensemble not only delivers an extravaganza of uplifting music but is also a cradle for new talent with every instalment that they release. The new finds have gone on to carve successful careers in the music industry and become household names including Ntokozo Mbambo, Nqubeko Mbatha, William Sejake, Brenda Mntambo, Mahalia Buchanan and Puleng March. Joyous has become a permanent fixture and part of the South African Easter tradition with their sold-out live performances attracting thousands of fans from across Africa and the world. Political heavyweights, cultural icons and prominent members of society can be spotted in the audience. Their concerts broadcast on national television draw millions of eyeballs, appealing to the young and old, making Joyous a truly family-orientated brand. It’s the craftsmanship in composition and arrangement of original songs and traditional hymns fused with euphonious vocals from the lead singer and the choir that have put Joyous in a league of their own. The unmistakable African rhythms paired with an uproarious, buoyant and joyous delivery with a modern take is a marvel to indulge in.
