Who says the party has to stop? In Diepkloof, Soweto, grooving goes beyond the usual hours, and a scene outside Extreme Lounge stunned netizens.

Grooving way beyond sunrise

The clip by @bigboycarter16 shows a lively crowd still going strong as the sun creeps up. Some folks are grabbing grilled street food, others are vibing to music blasting from the lounge, and cars are lined up all over the street.

You’d think it’s midnight with the energy levels, but nope – it’s a whole new day!
