UB40 announces extra Pretoria date for South African Tour

Posted on by

Reggae royalty, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, is heading to South Africa this year. With Campbell’s unmistakable vocals, and the band’s signature horn lines and laid-back groove, their sound continues to resonate with audiences across the world. Expect timeless hits like Red Red Wine and Kingston Town, brought to life with a live show guaranteed to have you singing every word.

Campbell, founder of UB40 and the authentic voice behind the band’s biggest hits, said: “When I first founded UB40 back in 1978, I put everything I had into it – including the compensation money I’d received from a criminal injury claim. None of us could have imagined we’d go on to sell over 100 million records and take reggae from Birmingham to the world. It’s been an incredible journey.

The seminal reggae pop band from Birmingham, was originally formed by a group of friends from diverse ethnic backgrounds. From the beginning, the band became known for its socially aware lyrics and laid-back reggae rhythms. With Campbell’s unmistakable voice leading the way, UB40 blended reggae, dub, and pop into a sound that helped bring the genre into the mainstream.

UB40 featuring Ali Campbell will be at Sunbet Arena, Time Square, Pretoria on Saturday, 6 June 2026 (SOLD OUT) and Sunday June 7 2026 at 19h00 in a Big Concerts Experience in association with KFM 94.5 and Hot 102.7.
