The Third Chapter in the Ritual.
With Long Live: Rock & Roll & Long Live: HipHop, we proved that the spirit of live music in Cape Town isn't just a memory—it’s our living, breathing present and future.
Curated by KAYA continues its residency at the legendary Sergeant Pepper, moving beyond the sanctuary of 35 Loop Street to keep breathing new life into the city’s most iconic spaces.
We believe live music is the most fundamental shared tradition we have. It’s a ritual that has connected us across time and space. Long Live is a series designed to bridge the gap between a focused live performance and a high-energy party. We aren't just booking a lineup; we’re curating an atmosphere where you can lose yourself in the beat and find yourself in the crowd.
The Vibe: Electric. Raw. Real.
Expect a night that is Lively, Electric, and Warm. We’re capturing the "sweaty," high-energy magic of Cape Town’s live music history and updating it for a new generation. This is a space that is Safe and Free—a room where the music is loud, the energy is alert, and the connection is visceral.
The Venue: Sergeant Pepper.
Sergeant Pepper is a piece of Cape Town’s cultural legacy. With its refreshed stage and the iconic full-length balcony overlooking Upper Long Street, we are leveraging this legendary space to create an immersive, urban gig experience. We are turning the lights back up and the sound back on to reclaim Long Street as a premier destination for those who care about the craft of live performance.
Join the Ritual.
Be there for the third chapter as we celebrate the bars, the beats, and the community.
Curated by KAYA. Creative curation for people who care.
