Milky Chance recently announced their long-awaited return to South Africa with their “Living In A Haze” tour in February 2024 which will see them perform in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban. The German Duo are excited to confirm that both Neon Dreams and Sean Koch will join them as support acts on the line-up for their shows in Cape Town (15 February) and Johannesburg (17 February), and Neon Dreams will also join Milky Chance in Durban (18 February) as support act.
Canadian duo Neon Dreams are no strangers to the South African music scene. Their 2019 single “Life Without Fantasies” reached the top of the South African viral charts amassing millions of streams in 2021 during the lockdown. The band connected with tens of thousands of fans online which led to their first sold out headline tour. They have continued to cement themselves in the industry here, having toured the country a number of times over the past few years and return in February 2024 to share the stage with Milky Chance in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban.
Sean Koch is one of SA’s most-loved indie-folk artists who brings a mixed bag of African and western, influence alongside messages of home, a connection to nature, the ocean and the people around him; to his storytelling, feel-good music. While rooted in his flowing-folk style, his music is diverse. From dance infused songs like ‘Lift You Up’ the standout single from his collection (including the Double MZK & G DOM remix) to the dreamier songs like ‘Feel the Energy’ that carry deeper messages of connection to the natural world and the people that surround us. There is something for everyone in Sean’s catalogue.

We look forward to the Mercury Wine Week and have been attending for the last four years. We almost always leave having bought far too much wine, along with rosy cheeks and a big fat smile. No other wine show in KZN does it better!

I am just an extroverted young lady who loves and enjoys attending all sorts of events to get to know what is hip and happening within SA’s entertainment industry. A ticket to the show would give me more knowledge about what the different kinds of wine i drink most of the time when out, and i may just find my favourite – as all wine to me tastes good!

I am currently holding a bunch of grapes hostage… they are locked in my fridge where no one can find them… unless you know where I live.
Give me the tickets and all the grapes will be set free. Give them to someone else and lets just say I’ll squash the life out of them…
Do the right thing and save a bunch of grapes today!
