The organisers of Locrate Market host a Live Jive at Lebo's Soweto Backpackers on Sun, Apr 6, 2025 – a chance to experience the vibrant spirit of Soweto from 12:00 – 20:00. Book your tickets here. 

Fusing the words 'local' and 'creative', Locrate Market's name reflects a commitment to showcasing various forms of home-grown creativity, including local makers, a culinary adventure that features local and international flavours, and high-energy live music. The Live Jive edition isn't your typical market offering – it's "a celebration, a rhythm, and a vibe that brings the joy of live music back to 'e ma Kasi'."

This event marks a reimagining of Locrate Market as a vibrant space for connection, creativity, and entrepreneurship. In the heart of Soweto, the Live Jive brings together a diverse array of food trucks, craft beers, handmade goods, and vintage treasures, all set against the backdrop of Soweto's local fashion scene and the beats of talented DJs. Locrate Market remains family-friendly, cultivating a welcoming space in which little ones can enjoy themselves, too. Follow @locratemarket on Instagram for the music line-up when it's announced. 

Locrate Market is partnering with Lebo's Soweto Backpackers to offer a "holistic Soweto experience". You can look forward to My Weekend in Soweto tours, nightlife experiences, and bike rides. To make the most of the weekend, book a stay at Lebo's here. 

Locrate Market's Live Jive on Sun, Apr 6 from 12:00 – 20:00 is chance to connect with Soweto and its people right at the source. Bring along your own camping chairs and picnic blankets. Click here to get your tickets.
