Get Lucky Summer returns for its 14th year with a new look and big SA line-up

Summer concert favourite Lucky Fish Get Lucky Summer is returning for its 14th year, with GoodLuck, Matthew Mole, The Parlotones, Will Linley and Prime Circle among the artists confirmed for the 2026/27 festive season.

The summer concert series will once again bring live music to Cape Town and the Garden Route, but organisers are promising a noticeably different experience this time around.

The new season comes with a complete rebrand, new partnerships, bigger production and enhanced venues and experiences.

Get Lucky Summer gets a major revamp

Founded by multi-award-winning South African live electronic band GoodLuck, Get Lucky Summer has grown into an established fixture on the country’s summer concert calendar.

For the 2026/27 season, the team says it has used audience feedback to rethink and expand the experience.

“We’ve really listened to what people want from Get Lucky Summer, and this year we’re taking the whole experience to another level,” says Peters, Co-Founder and Festival Creative Director.

“From a complete rebrand and exciting new partnerships to bigger production, better spaces, more detail and more magic across every touchpoint, we’ve been working incredibly hard to bring a much bigger vision to life.

“Lucky Fish Get Lucky Summer has always been about creating those unforgettable summer memories with the people you love, and this season we want people to feel the difference from the moment they arrive.”
