If you were born on 29 February, your once-every-four-years moment has arrived.
Kfm 94.5’s The Flash Drive with Carl Wastie has launched a special Leap Year campaign celebrating the Western Cape’s rarest birthdays.
Calling All Leaplings
The campaign went live on Friday, 13 February 2026, during The Flash Drive, which airs weekdays from 15:00 to 19:00. Listeners first heard teasers about a mysterious birthday celebration that only happens once every four years.
The excitement has continued to build across the province as leaplings claim their spotlight.
How To Enter
Listeners born on 29 February can enter via WhatsApp on 082 945 0940.
To qualify:
• Send a photo of your ID to verify your birth date
• Include the area where you live
Entries remain open as anticipation grows for a rare celebration.
The Ultimate Kfm Birthday Bash
The grand event takes place on Saturday, 28 February 2026 at Spur Restaurant.
Carl Wastie will host the exclusive party alongside Cassidy Nicholson and The Flash Drive team.
Guests can expect:
• Great food
• A high-energy atmosphere
• Classic Spur birthday flair
• A memorable once every four years celebration
Carl Wastie says: “Leap Year babies are celebrated once every four years and, despite technically being younger than the rest of us, they deserve to be celebrated every year too. My first job was as Chico the Clown at Spur, so this feels like a full-circle moment. I can’t wait to leap for joy with our winners.”
Tune In And Join The Celebration
Kfm 94.5 invites listeners to tune in every weekday afternoon to follow the campaign and hear leapling stories.
