Music4Masks is an initiative by AfricaMasks4All.
This online music festival will feature some of the most exciting established and up-and-coming local acts in South Africa and the African continent at large.
Music4Masks is an eight-hour festival that will be streamed live on YouTube and Facebook on 28 June 2020, starting at noon.

The event will run for eight hours and feature non-stop music and entertainment, with proceeds going towards the #AfricaMasks4All campaign.
As a non-profit company, AfricaMasks4All is raising funds to help make and distribute cloth masks to people who cannot afford one.
With a very ambitious target of one million cloth masks, the NPC is looking at innovative ways to raise money.
As a result, several fundraisers are in the pipeline, with the first big drive being the #Music4Masks event.
Says AfricaMasks4All Director Grant De Sousa, “Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak in South Africa and the lockdown, there have been a number of very cool streams, but few of this duration and diversity.
“The artists are really going all out to make this a memorable event.
“While our main ambition is to raise funds for AfricaMasks4All, as an NPC, we want to be able to also give people a nice distraction while supporting a good cause.”
