UManyano Lwe Jazz

ULJFEST'26 | ROOTED (ƒ) Five years in the making, and this December, UManyano Lwe Jazz presents its boldest cultural and curatorial statement to date. Across two carefully curated days, world-class music, conversation, food, art, and community come together to create an experience that is both regionally contextual and globally relevant. With artists from across Southern Africa, the diaspora, and beyond, and a first and second wave reveal boasting 32 culture-shifting artists, you would be pained to miss it. Whether travelling within Gauteng, or from Cape Town, Gaborone, Maseru, Melbourne, London, Detroit, or anywhere in between, ROOTED (ƒ) promises a rare gathering of artists, communities and cultures that may never again be assembled in quite the same way. World-class artists and production. Beautiful surroundings. Authentic community. A once-in-a-generation weekend destination experience. Do not wait. For the love of jazz, community, & the the culture.
