Mexican Electronic Music Artist Rebolledo to perform in South Africa and Kenya for the first time this July.
Black News 
A five-date international tour that will bring globally acclaimed Mexican electronic music artist Mauricio Rebolledo to London, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Nairobi and Kilifi in June and July 2026 has been announced.
The tour marks Rebolledo’s first-ever performances on the African continent.
Based in Mexico and Paris, Rebolledo is a seminal figure in the international underground electronic music scene.
The tour kicks off in London on 27 June at 17 Little Portland Street in collaboration with OpenLab before heading to South Africa for performances in Johannesburg and Cape Town. Rebolledo will headline Johannesburg’s Bad Manors on 3 July before taking over Cape Town’s Botanik Social House on 4 July. The African leg then continues into Kenya with performances at Muze Club in Nairobi on 9 July and Salty’s Beach Bar in Kilifi on 10 July.
More than simply a touring schedule, the routing has been intentionally curated as a broader cultural experience. Between the South African and Kenyan legs, Rebolledo will embark on a two-night safari experience.
Widely regarded as one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary electronic music, Rebolledo has built a global following through his hypnotic blend of deep techno, psychedelic and tribal house and leftfield club sounds. A regular at globally recognised events and venues including Mayan Warrior/Robot Heart at Burning Man and Panorama Bar in Berlin, his arrival in Africa comes at a time of growing international interest in the continent’s underground electronic music scenes, particularly in South Africa and East Africa.
South African support artists Lelowhatsgood and El Gordo will join the African leg of the tour, Johannesburg vinyl star Abby Nurock joins the tour in London and Johannesburg.
