Ye’s (formerly known as Kanye West) South African concert, which was set to take place in Johannesburg in December, has been postponed, organisers announced Monday.
The show is set to take place on a later date.
“Yeezy LLC confirms that Ye’s Johannesburg performance is being expanded into a larger Yeezy-led production in South Africa,” the announcement said.
“To support the bigger production and broadcast plans, the performance previously scheduled for 13 December 2025 will not be taking place on that date and is moving to a new date,” it continued.

“All ticket-holders for the 13 December performance will receive a full refund from their original point of purchase. Refunds will be processed by TicketPro. For any further information, please email info@ticketpros.co.za.”
A new date, venue and production and broadcast details for the concert are being finalised by Yeezy LLC, the touring team, and key stakeholders. The new date will be announced via Ye’s verified channels.
“Ye and the Yeezy team remain committed and excited to perform in South Africa and on the continent, and to share the Johannesburg homecoming live and via broadcast with fans worldwide,” the announcement said.
A note also added that “Yeezy LLC is no longer working with the previously announced promoter on this project due to non-compliance”.
The previous promoter was the Monyake Group, which had been facing scepticism from the public, as they had mostly just booked smaller Gospel acts in the past.
