The hosting lineup for one of South Africa's most anticipated live music events of the year has just been locked in, and fans could not be more thrilled about the choices.
Bontle Modiselle and Robot Boii have been confirmed as the official hosts for Scorpion Kings Live at FNB Stadium, set to take place on Saturday, 19 September 2026. The pair will front the mainstage action as DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small command South Africa's largest stadium in front of a crowd expected to exceed 70,000 people.
A hosting duo built for the amapiano stage
The selection of Modiselle and Robot Boii makes a lot of sense when you consider what the show demands. Modiselle, a celebrated dancer, actress, and presenter, brings years of live-stage presence and performance energy. Robot Boii, known equally as a comedian, dancer, and musician, adds humour and spontaneity to the mix. Together, they are well suited to sustaining the high-tempo atmosphere that Amapiano crowds thrive on throughout a long stadium night.

Veteran broadcast and sports personality Baba Mthethwa has also been brought on board in a unique capacity. Named the event's official "Chief Commentator," Mthethwa will weave his signature live-delivery style into the show's overall structure, lending it an added layer of theatrical excitement.
What to expect on the day
The doors open well before the headliners take the stage, with a stacked pre-show programme kicking off from 12:00 PM. The full roster features dozens of South Africa's leading Amapiano, Afro-soul, and Hip-Hop acts, making the event a full day's worth of entertainment rather than a single-night concert.
General tickets have already been nearing capacity, reflecting just how much appetite there is for a proper large-scale live music experience. The announcement of the hosting duo was met with widespread excitement from fans, who highlighted both Modiselle and Robot Boii's deep roots in dance culture as the perfect credentials for managing a crowd of this size.
