DJ Tira’s wife, Gugu Khathi, toldDaily Sunthat the cancellation was due to safety concerns. “It’s just a safety precaution… We’ve noticed many people, who are not from Durban, are scared to come to the event, and as you know, our marquee attracts many people across Mzansi, not just Durban. She added that the Afrotainment Marquee will return to the Hollywoodbets Durban July in 2027.

The Afrotainment Marquee has, over the years, become one of the key hospitality and entertainment spaces at the Durban July, often featuring performances by top local artists and DJs, as well as surprise guest appearances. DJ Tira previously toldThe Citizenthat significant resources go into producing the marquee experience. “We spent a lot of money to make sure that our marquee looks the part.

Our marquee has an indoor and an outdoor area, so you can choose if you want to chill outdoors or indoors with VIP in our elevated marquee. “People have a choice. We’ve got VIP inside and VIP outside, but there is entertainment, great food, and teleportation.”
