To the delight of South African music lovers, Bastille will return to South Africa to play three shows in three different cities in 2017. The last time the British rockers were on South African soil, in 2014, they played to sold out crowds and rave reviews. Now, with the launch of their second album, Wild World, they’ll soon be back as part of their Wild, Wild World Tour.

Bastille’s first performance will be held in Cape Town on 4 October at GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World. Next up is Durban on 6 October, at the Durban Botanic Gardens, with the closing act rounding off the tour in Johannesburg the very next evening.

Bastille shot to fame in 2013 with their massive hit single ‘Pompeii’. The crowd-pleasing hit has since amassed over 400 million views on YouTube.

One year later, their breakout success was rewarded when they received the Brit Award for the British Breakthrough Act. Their most recent achievement was the NME Award for Best Album – ‘Wild World’ – which is their latest to date.

In 2014, the award-winning band performed in front of sellout crowds for their debut tour of South Africa. Three years on, Bastille is expected to dominate the stage again.
