Gauteng, get ready to turn up the good vibes — The first Pretoria show of UB40 featuring Ali Campbell at SunBet Arena, Time Square on 6 June 2026 has officially sold out — and due to overwhelming demand, a second Pretoria show has just been added for Sunday, 7 June 2026.

That’s right: South African fans will now have two chances to experience the unmistakable sound of Ali Campbell live on stage, with HOT 102.7FM proudly partnering with Big Concerts to bring this incredible event to Pretoria.

With Ali’s unmistakable voice and the band’s signature horn lines, reggae grooves, and timeless hits, this is one show you don’t want to miss. Expect to sing along to classics like “Red Red Wine,” “Kingston Town,” “Cherry Oh Baby,” and “(I Can’t Help) Falling in Love with You” as reggae royalty takes the stage in one unforgettable night of nostalgia, love, and rhythm.

The original voice. The timeless sound.

When Ali Campbell first founded UB40 back in 1978, he couldn’t have imagined the global journey ahead — selling over 100 million records and bringing reggae from Birmingham to the world. His unique voice became the soundtrack to countless good times, and now, South Africa gets to experience that magic all over again.

UB40 featuring Ali Campbell continues to tour the globe to sold-out audiences, celebrating the songs that have defined generations. Whether you’ve been a fan since the ’80s or just love the sound of feel-good reggae, you’ll be swaying and singing from the first note to the last encore.
