Oskido’s Lifestyle Festival ‘Big Day Out’ Returns for Second Edition

Following the massive success of last year’s sold-out celebration, South African music icon Oskido has officially announced the return of his dynamic lifestyle festival, Big Day Out, happening on Saturday, 29 November 2025. Set against the lush backdrop of Huddle Park in Linksfield, Johannesburg, Big Day Out 2025 promises a vibrant collision of music, food, culture, and community.

A Bigger, Bolder Celebration of South African Culture

Back with more beats, more flavour, and even more vibe, Big Day Out 2025 is building on last year’s unforgettable experience. The festival will once again bring together thousands of music lovers for a curated lifestyle experience that celebrates the best of South African heritage and modern creativity.

From the golden era of Kwaito and timeless House anthems to the cutting-edge sounds of Amapiano and Hip Hop, this year’s festival bridges generations with a bold, diverse lineup. Expect legendary performers sharing the stage with the country’s hottest rising stars, in a sonic celebration that spans decades.

“The response to the first Big Day Out totally blew the team and I away. In 2025, we’re taking it to another level – more artists, more music and more ways to celebrate the diversity of the South Africans we are. This festival is for anyone who’s ever danced to a Kwaito beat or lost themselves in a House groove. It’s our story, told through sound, taste and style. See you in November!”

What to Expect at Big Day Out 2025

This immersive one-day lifestyle event is more than just a music festival – it’s a celebration of South African identity. Festival goers can look forward to:
