Donell Jones set to perform in South Africa
International R&B icon Donell Jones will headline the Ndlala Mall launch in Pretoria.
After a short delay, the much-anticipated launch of Ndlala Mall is finally set to take place on August 23, and it promises to be a showstopper.
Known for timeless hits like Where I Wanna Be and U Know What’s Up, the American singer continues to captivate audiences worldwide, drawing in over 1.2 million listeners each month on Spotify.
Now, South African fans will get the chance to witness him live at the Ndlala Arena, a newly built, 550-seat entertainment venue nestled within the upscale development in Arcadia.
“This is a huge honour,” said Thami Ndlala, CEO of Ndlala Mall. “To have an artist of such a great calibre opening the arena is a dream come true.”
Jones will share the spotlight with some of South Africa’s finest, including soulful songstress Zonke Dikana and beloved vocalist Vusi Nova, both known for their emotionally rich ballads and commanding stage presence.
Driven by billionaire entrepreneur Thami Ndlala, the mall marks a new chapter for Pretoria’s urban scene.
Positioned beside the luxurious Ndlala Oligarch Hotel & Apartments, the development fuses high-end retail, lifestyle, and entertainment into a single, forward-thinking destination.
With its grand opening set to combine glitz, music, and innovation, August 23 is shaping up to be more than just a date on the calendar
