ABOUT
NYE is not just another event.
It defines the year.
In 2026, we build our most ambitious production as we returns on 31 December 2026 for our most ambitious New Year’s Eve production to date.
Following the momentum of previous editions, the 2026 experience is being expanded across a larger main field, a higher-capacity festival layout, upgraded production, stronger brand visibility, and a significantly more premium guest journey.
SOSNYE is a full-scale cultural platform bringing together music, media, lifestyle, youth culture, premium brands, and one of the most engaged entertainment audiences in South Africa.
With a projected attendance of 14,000 people, Secrets of Summer 2026 will offer 5FM a rare opportunity to own the final night of the year with a high-energy audience that is young, social, digital-first, brand-aware, and highly responsive to experiences that feel authentic.
