NHLANGANO – The decks may be silent for her this time, but the energy will be anything but quiet. Rising star DJ Zoleka Dlamini is celebrating her birthday with a full-blown musical experience that promises rhythm, community, and unforgettable vibes.
Set to take place on June 28, 2025, at the scenic Entabeni Lodge in Nhlangano, Zoleka’s Birthday Hangout is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated parties in the southern region.
“This isn’t just a party,” Zoleka says. “It’s an experience—multi-sensory, curated, and made for people who truly love good vibes and good music.”
Themed Black, White or Denim, the event allows guests to show up in simple, stylish outfits without the pressure of a strict dress code. “I want people to come as they are and still feel they belong,” she adds.
And while Zoleka is taking the night off from the turntables, she’s handpicked a line-up of talent to keep the energy soaring. Headliners Vasco and De-Dang, both crowd favorites in the deep house scene, will set the tone for the night, supported by local powerhouses DelightSoul, Msime, NuttySoul, SelekTor, and Khile.
Adding to the buzz is the fact that entry is free, with selected drink specials on offer throughout the night—making this celebration not only exciting but also accessible.
Known for her fiery Afro House/Tech sets and vibrant stage presence, Zoleka has been making waves across Eswatini’s music scene since she broke out in 2022. But her love for music began long before that—back in high school—and was reignited in 2021 when she decided to finally step up to the decks.
Now, just a few years later, she’s curating a celebration that reflects her journey: bold, inclusive, and packed with soulful beats.
Zoleka’s Birthday Hangout is more than just a party. It’s a tribute to her growth as an artist, a toast to Eswatini’s thriving music culture, and a space where good music, good people, and good vibes collide.
