44 Long Street, CBD & Foreshore
A landmark new hybrid cultural institution launching on Long Street from creative agency Active Imagination: a high-spec, music-led event space running three nights a week, built into the same historic building as a professional recording studio, a photographic studio, and an in-house record label. The concept is Discover, Develop, Produce, Showcase, Export — not just a venue but a full ecosystem for developing South African electronic talent and exporting it globally, backed by partners including the City of Cape Town, Red Bull South Africa, and the Black Coffee Foundation. Opening soon.
