ARE you ready? We are ready! The countdown to glamour is in full swing!

We’re counting down to the ‘local is lekker’ grand affair, the Daily Voice’s Diamonds and Divas’ fifth edition. 

Mark the date: Saturday, 13 September 2025. Let your friends, your sisters, and your squad know you’ve got a date from 11am to 3pm, and the only place to be at is The Venue in Schaapkraal, dressed in a gewaarlike sparkling pink nommertjie. 

The red carpet will be rolled out, the glam will be turned all the way up, and our top-tier local artists are ready to blow your high heels off and get you down. 

Expect live performances, good vibes, and unforgettable moments. Another year, another jol, only this time, the volume’s turned all the way up.

Salome, the rose amongst the thorns, said: “This event is truly special and humbling for me, it feels so relatable. I’m just a girl from the Plain who’s faced almost every obstacle that an ordinary woman goes through, and yet I’m still rising. “Sharing a room and performing for women like me is a real honour.” 

Alongside the powerhouse Salome is MC Peadon Smith, bringing his vibrant energy and authenticity to every stage he steps on. 

Sharing the spotlight is Fagrie Isaacs, smooth, soulful, and in a league of his own. When he sings, the crowd feels every word and the effortlessly charmer Mujahid George, a true crowd favourite who lights up every stage he touches.

The tickets are selling like hot cakes  and if you haven’t got yours yet, now’s the time, diva! 

Get your ticket via Quicket for just R300. You’re not just buying a ticket, you’re securing a day of unforgettable moments, an off-the-hook, full-on entertainment line-up, diva-level experiences, and a three-course buffet meal to top it all off. 

Salome adds: “I don’t usually do this, but on the day, I’ll be pulling out a ballad alongside my TikTok partner in crime, Peadon Smith. Expect something special and unexpected!”

The day is set to be lit and even more special as the Daily Voice celebrates a massive 20 years of making noise, telling it like it is, and keeping it real! 

We’ve always said we are more than just a paper. Celebrating two decades with our Diamonds and Divas family is the perfect way to honour the queens who make our communities shine. This event is our love letter to the women who inspire, hustle, and sparkle every day.

Do the right thing, grab your girls, grab your glam, and grab those tickets before they’re gone!
