Johannesburg - “Belinda is Back” by popular demand!  South African singing sensation Belinda Davids returns to the Joburg Theatre with “The Greatest Love of All” at the iconic Mandela Theatre from August 24 to September 10.

Last year’s sold-out run exceeded all expectations, resulting in an unprecedented demand for tickets which led to the 2023 return season.

The vocal prowess of Belinda Davids continues to wow audiences across the world, including the US, UK, Europe, Middle East, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

“The high demand for tickets for last year’s season was phenomenal. As soon as the shows sold out, we were inundated with requests from fans who were asking for a return season,” says Xoliswa Nduneni-Ngema, chief executive officer at Joburg City Theatres.

“Belinda Davids will be back and we are privileged to host her return to the Joburg Theatre.
