World-renowned opera singer Andrea Bocelli will perform in South Africa in April 2025 as part of his 30th-anniversary tour. The multi-Grammy Award winner will captivate audiences in Pretoria and Cape Town with three unforgettable performances.

Bocelli will perform at the SunBet Arena in Pretoria on April 12 and 13, followed by a historic outdoor concert at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium on April 16. The Cape Town event is expected to be the largest outdoor classical concert ever held in the city.

These concerts are organized by Big Concerts Experience and supported by local radio stations KFM 94.5, CapeTalk, 702, and 947. In Pretoria, Bocelli will be joined by the Symphony Choir of Johannesburg and the Johannesburg Festival Orchestra.

His performances have graced many high-profile events, including those attended by four U.S. presidents, three popes, the British royal family, and various prime ministers.
