Arno Carstens and WONDERboom live at Strandkombuis

We’re opening 2026 with a massive live music celebration at Strandkombuis!

On Sunday, 4 January, two South African music legends, Arno Carstens and WONDERboom, take over our events tent, tucked under the dune with beautiful salt pan views. The perfect setting for an unforgettable night.

Arno Carstens, one of SA’s most iconic voices, brings decades of award-winning music to the stage, from his Springbok Nude Girls rock legacy to beloved solo hits like Another Universe, Out of the Blue, Tjoepstil and Hoe Gaan Dit. With a career spanning chart-topping albums, international art exhibitions, and creative reinvention, Arno remains one of the country’s most influential artists.

Joining him is the explosive energy of WONDERboom, a Joburg powerhouse that has dominated stages for 28 years. Known for their dynamic fusion of rock, funk, punk and afro-dance, their live shows are electrifying, high-energy experiences driven by unmatched band chemistry.

Together, these two bands set the tone for an epic start to the New Year.
