The ANNUAL Hipnotik Hip-Hop Festival

Swaziland, Southern Africa – The Hip Hop festival is set to bring the best in the Hip Hop history as Hipnotik Festivals embarks on a very ‘Hipnotik’ journey to deliver fans a festival that they never thought they would witness in their entire lives.

Based at the Ezulwini, Swaziland in the Southern Africa, Hipnotik Festival has been certified to be one of festivals will [as they say it in the hop-hop terminology, it will be LIT!].  Hipnotik Festival was founded by Swazi Jive Founders Sakhile Nkambule and Lindelo Dlamini, which basically started as a birthday celebration but after the huge response the idea was grown into the Hipnotik you see today.

What is the Hipnotik Festival you ask yourself? Hipnotik Festival is one of the biggest festivals in Swaziland and the biggest hip hop festival in the Kingdom. It is basically an annual event that has been hosted successfully for the past four years hosting the best of hip hop artists from South Africa while promoting Swaziland artists. This year we aim to host more artists from other neighbouring countries. In 2015, close to 6 000 people attended the festival and we are anticipating 10 000 people for this year’s event which promises to be bigger and better.

The festival in essence is set to bring in the leading artists from varies countries, to set your spirit soaring in this year’s edition of Hipnotik Festival. You will be Hypnotized into nothing but amazing artists that will make your body not to be able to take anymore.

Is the Festival going to be dedicated to Hip-Hop artists? The Hipnotik Festival focuses on Hip Hop and the hip hop culture. In the past Swazi Jive has hosted the best of local and international game changers in hip hop, we have however catered for other genres as last year we hosted Black Motion. This year our line-up for boosts of renowned hip hop artists; KO, Emtee, Areece, Fifi Cooper, Miss Pru DJ, Benchmarq, 80 Script, Tendaness, Kwesta, Nasty C, to mention a few. More artists are to be revealed in the third phase of the line-up.

How You Will Get To The Event?  Hipnotik Festival has partnered with Sky World Tours and Travel which is our official shuttle service for the event. The shuttles travel between South Africa and Swaziland, from Sandton and O.R Tambo. This partnership means Hipnotik ticket holders will get discounted rates on this shuttle. Travel times are available on http://www.skyworld.co.sz/.

You are probably thinking what makes Hipnotik discrepant from all the other Hip-hop festivals. That is because Hipnotik Festival is fast growing and has made a good name after having hosted four shows successfully. We pride ourselves in consistency, hosting the best of hip hop artists, service delivery, and a great value for your money.

Well, as a Hip-Hop fanatic, you are thinking what is that you can anticipate at the Hipnotik Festival. This festival is all about discrepancy and the Hipnotik crew can totally prove that they will provide that when attending the festival. The Hipnotik management stated that: Fans can look forward to a great show. The artists we have on the Hipnotik 2016 line-up are not only making waves currently, but they are well established artists who have managed to stay on top. This year we are challenging ourselves even further by introducing activities and technologies that will add value to the overall customer experience at the festival. The Hipnotik experience is like no other and we promise fans nothing but the best whether they are in the general area, VIP, or the golden circle. The VIP pre party which is hosted a day before the festival (July 8), is also an unforgettable experience for VIP ticket holders where they also get a chance to mingle with some of the artists.
