John Legend announces three South African shows for February 2027

The 13-time Grammy winner will play Pretoria, Durban and Cape Town in February 2027, with a Mastercard presale opening on Wednesday 11 November.

American singer-songwriter John Legend will bring his The Muse Tour to South Africa in February 2027, with shows planned in Pretoria, Durban and Cape Town, according to IOL.

The 13-time Grammy Award winner is expected to perform some of his best-known songs, among them All of Me, Ordinary People and Tonight (Best You Ever Had).

Tour dates and venues

The three South African shows are scheduled as follows:

  • 20 February 2027: Sunbet Arena, Time Square, Pretoria
  • 23 February 2027: Durban ICC, Durban
  • 25 February 2027: Grand Arena, GrandWest, Cape Town

The Pretoria concert opens the South African leg of the tour, and the Cape Town show closes it, IOL reported.

How to get tickets

Fans will have more than one chance to buy tickets, as presales open ahead of the general sale. The Mastercard presale starts at 10am on Wednesday 11 November and runs until 8.59am on Friday 13 November. It is available only to Mastercard holders. IOL said more information can be found at priceless.com/music.

What this means for fans

Because today is Tuesday 10 November, the Mastercard presale begins tomorrow. Anyone who holds a Mastercard and wants an early shot at tickets should note the window, which closes on the morning of Friday 13 November.

Fans who do not have a Mastercard will have to wait for the general sale. The report did not give a date for that sale, and it did not mention ticket prices, so it is worth checking official announcements before making plans or setting a budget.

With the shows spread across three provinces, those who want to travel to a concert in another city may also want to keep the February dates in mind early, while the venues are still being announced and promoted.
