The annual Hennessy Back To The City Festival presents artists representing the pinnacle of artistic expression from South Africa and abroad.
This unique annual youth event has grown into the largest public display of both commercial and underground Hip Hop in Africa, presenting a day of live music, street art, break-dancing, art installation, skateboarding, film, street fashion, gaming, speakers and panel discussions.
