The Ngwathe Easter Experience 2026 lineup has Free State buzzing this month with Cassper Nyovest headlining alongside amapiano favourites Boohle and Aymos at Fezile Dabi Stadium in Tumahole, Parys.
The one-day festival set for Saturday, April 4, promises a full celebration of music and culture, with gates swinging open at 10AM and vibes running late into the night.
Cassper Nyovest tops the bill, bringing his high-energy hits and crowd-pulling power that always turns stadiums electric. Fresh off sold-out shows and new drops, he’ll deliver classics like “Monate Mpolaye” mixed with fresh fire.
Boohle joins strong; her smooth vocals on tracks like “Shela” are guaranteed to get everybody swaying. Aymos rounds out the big names, the soulful amapiano voice behind bangers that dominate playlists nationwide.
The rest of the card stacks deep too. Brandon Dhludhlu, Selimo Thabane, Tman Xpress, and more fill slots, blending hip-hop, amapiano, and local flavours for every taste.
Organisers call it a proper Easter party – family-friendly early, turning up as the sun sets. Fezile Dabi Stadium fits perfectly, an open space in Parys ready for thousands dancing under Free State skies.
Tickets are moving quickly already through Computicket and shops like Checkers. Early birds snag deals; general access keeps it affordable for big crowds. Road trips are planned from Joburg, Bloem, everywhere – Parys turns into a hotspot that weekend. Locals smile wide, even boosting businesses and pride in Ngwathe.
Social pages light up with hype. Posts shout “Cassper back in Free State!” mixing with Boohle dance challenges and Aymos sing-alongs. One fan wrote, “Easter sorted – stadium full, vibes higher.” Organisers tease more surprises, maybe guest drops or local openers shining.
This festival grows bigger each year, pulling acts that pack arenas solo. Free State gets a rare treat – top talent close to home, no long drives to Gauteng. The Easter long weekend is perfect timing, with a recovery day built in after partying hard.
Safety stays a priority – security is tight, medical is on-site, and transport options are pushed. Families welcome early; adults own the night. Food stalls, merch, and photo spots keep everybody busy between sets.
Ngwathe Easter Experience builds a strong community feel. Music unites, culture celebrates, memories last. With Cassper, Boohle, and Aymos leading, the 2026 edition is shaping up to be legendary. Mark calendars, grab tickets, and get ready to dance.
