Corona Names Grammy Winner Zakes Bantwini As Their Brand Ambassador In Africa

The landmark partnership follows Bantwini’s journey across some of the world’s most iconic music destinations – from Europe to African sunsets – celebrating a shared belief that life’s best moments are lived outdoors.

    

Grammy Award-winning musician, producer, and entrepreneur Zakes Bantwini is officially taking to the stage on his European summer tour as Corona South Africa’s new Brand Ambassador – a historic milestone for the African continent.

More than a celebrity endorsement, the collaboration celebrates a shared philosophy of slowing down, stepping outside and embracing life’s most meaningful moments. While Bantwini continues flying the South African flag on some of the world’s biggest stages, Corona will accompany his journey from Europe’s festival circuit to iconic cultural moments back home.

As Bantwini performs across Palma de Mallorca, Lisbon, Hamburg and Berlin before taking African electronic music to Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), Corona will stand alongside one of South Africa’s most influential cultural exports as he continues introducing African creativity to global audiences.

Fans will be able to discover the man behind the music and follow Zakes’ journey on an Instagram Series, “Golden Hour – on the Road With Zakes Bantwini”, followed by a short, documentary-style after-tour movie to be shown on YouTube.

Back home, the partnership will come to life through Mayonie Open Air, Bantwini’s own festival property, where Corona joins as Official Beer Partner across Durban and Johannesburg. Together, the collaboration will create unforgettable sunset experiences where music, culture and the outdoors come together, perfectly embodying Corona’s globally celebrated “This Is Living” philosophy.
