I’ve recently been bitten by the live music bug – and with full force.
My newfound love for really loud music, great vibes and interesting venues I’ve found this new festival called Jozifest. As per my habit- I will now share this event info with you, my fellow peeps and hope to bring new plans into your lives ;)

Jozifest 2012 is brought to you by Cool Runnings Fourways in an effort to capture the same (if not bigger and better) great vibe that our SA music fests tend to have, without the need for dust storms, tents and other out-in-the-wild experiences. It’s a 3-day event spanning over 3,4 and 5 February 2012.

The Cool Runnings will be extending in size for the weekend to give you an even bigger and better experience! You can expect the following stages: Drum n Bass Stage // Outdoor Band Stage // Electro Stage // Dubstep Stage // Hip Hop Stage // Trance & Tech Stage // VIP Stages and much more!!!
