Join us for an Afro-Rave featuring South African music and dance, headlined by Toya Delazy

To celebrate the Zanele Muholi exhibition and Topher Campbell’s exhibition My rukus! Heart this special event features Toya Delazy, Kyma the DJ and exciting South African musicians who will infuse the night with powerful expressions of music, dance, and poetic song.

Zanele Muholi is supported by the Huo Family Foundation with additional support from the Zanele Muholi Supporters Circle and Tate Americas Foundation. Research supported by Hyundai Tate Research Centre: Transnational in partnership with Hyundai Motor.

This event has been provided by Tate Gallery on behalf of Tate Enterprises Ltd.

Toya Delazy

Zulu musician Toya Delazy, now based in London, has been smashing down musical and cultural boundaries with aplomb, playing sold out shows across London, to Glastonbury, Mixmag or Keep Hush. From laid-back grooves to almost 200bpm and hefty pounding to extraordinarily complex polyrhythms, her beats and rhymes are multilingual, multicultural and multidimensional. Delazy’s Afrorave music encourages the listener to reimagine the experience of people of colour. However, its ideas transcend racial lines with messages of self-awareness, free expression and empowerment.

Kyma the DJ

A maestro of high energy sets, Kyma effortlessly brings a unique and explorative fusion of Afro club, GQOM, Afro tech, Afro house and UK Funky creating a sonic journey that will make you move and groove like never before! Kyma embarked on their journey in 2022 and since then has been making waves in the music scene, reaching stages such as Glastonbury, 51st Festival and Outlook fest.

Tate Modern's entrance is via the Turbine Hall on Holland Street. There are automatic sliding doors and a ramp down to the entrance.

  • Fully accessible toilets are located on every floor on the concourses
