Locrate Market

Live Jive is more than just an expression—it’s a celebration, a rhythm, and a vibe that brings the joy of live music back to e ma Kasi. It’s about movement, energy, and reconnecting through sound. Locrate, in partnership with Johnnie Walker Blondie and Smirnoff, proudly presents the return of the Locrate Market—our first edition after a long journey of redefining and reconfiguring our offering. A lot has changed since we first started in 2014, but our commitment remains the same: to be a vibrant space for connection, creativity, and entrepreneurship. We continue to curate a handpicked selection of local makers, diverse food experiences, and high-energy live music to create an unforgettable atmosphere. This time, we’re evolving! Locrate Market is now family-friendly, ensuring a welcoming space for everyone—including the little ones. In partnership with Lebo’s Backpackers, we’re offering a holistic Soweto experience, including:
