A: Safe Town Fest takes place on 27 April 2026 (Freedom Day) at Athlone Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa.

B: Gates open at 9:00 AM for the Family Day-Market and Experience Zone, which runs until 4:00 PM (16:00). The main concert event, the Freedom Day Concert – begins at 5:00 PM (17:00) and continues until 10:00 PM (22:00), uniting thousands in a powerful celebration of music, culture, and community.

As part of this day of reflection and freedom, the festival will pause for a moment of poetry and silence to honour and remember the women whose lives were lost to gender-based violence, in solidarity with the movement led by rememberHer.org.za — reminding us that true freedom means safety, equality, and justice for all.
