By the time Sunday rolls around, it will be Shimza who delivers the last word musically, closing out a weekend built around world-class golf and top-tier live performances.

Organisers have made clear that the entertainment offering is central to this year's experience, not just an afterthought. Nthabi Motsoeneng captured the vision when she said: "Expect the usual amazing golf, but even more amazing entertainment. We're adding a little bit of an African flair to the fashion, the lifestyle and entertainment."

That African flavour threads through the entire programme, positioning Sun City not just as a golf destination for the weekend, but as a full lifestyle and culture event. With Shimza's reputation for commanding large crowds and delivering marathon sets, his Sunday slot feels like a natural fit for the closing chapter of the tournament.
