Scorpion Kings Make History at FNB Stadium

The countdown to one of South Africa‘s biggest live music spectacles has entered its final stage as Scorpion Kings Live at FNB Stadium releases the last 5,000 tickets, giving thousands more fans the opportunity to witness a landmark moment in South African music history.

Following overwhelming demand since tickets first went on sale, the additional allocation is expected to sell out quickly. A limited number of hospitality packages have also been made available, offering premium access to what promises to be the biggest Amapiano concert ever staged.

Record-Breaking Demand

The event has already shattered expectations, with more than 500,000 fans queuing online in an attempt to secure tickets. The extraordinary response highlights the immense popularity of DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small, collectively known as the Scorpion Kings, and reflects the global rise of Amapiano.

With the release of the final ticket allocation, Scorpion Kings Live at FNB Stadium is set to become the second-largest sold-out concert in FNB Stadium history, joining the ranks of the continent’s most iconic live music events.

A Historic Moment for Amapiano

Beyond the impressive ticket sales, the concert represents a defining milestone for South African music. DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small are set to become the first South African artists, and the first Amapiano artists, to sell out a stadium on this scale.

What started as a local township sound has evolved into a global music phenomenon, dominating streaming platforms, festivals, clubs, and charts across the world. The success of Scorpion Kings Live stands as a testament to the international impact of Amapiano and the growing influence of South African artists.

Reflecting on the significance of the occasion, DJ Maphorisa said:

“This is bigger than us. It’s bigger than one show. It’s about showing the world what South African music can do. To see so many fans supporting Amapiano at this level is something we never take for granted.”

Kabza De Small echoed the sentiment, adding:

“We’ve always believed in the music and in the people who support it. To be part of a moment like this, where piano is making history, is a blessing. We’re grateful to every fan who continues to grow with us.”

Final Tickets Available

Fans hoping to be part of this historic occasion are encouraged to secure their tickets as soon as possible, with demand expected to remain exceptionally high.

The final tickets are available through Webtickets, Pick n Pay, and Boxer stores nationwide, while hospitality suite packages can be purchased through MyTicket.

On 19 September 2026, FNB Stadium will become the stage for a celebration that not only honours the Scorpion Kings but also showcases the remarkable journey of Amapiano from South African streets to the global spotlight.
