Basadi in Music Awards Marks Five Years with a Celebration of Style, Culture and Legacy

The Basadi in Music Awards (BIMA) is celebrating its fifth anniversary with the theme “Rewind – Your BIMA. Your Way,” inviting guests to revisit the iconic fashion themes that have shaped the awards over the years. Attendees can express their individuality by choosing from standout themes including Queens & Crowns, Touch of Africa, Girl in the Mirror, The Four Elements, and Gentlemen, each offering a unique interpretation of elegance, culture and creativity.

Beyond the red carpet, the celebration continues as BIMA honours five years of championing women in African music and building an institution dedicated to recognising their excellence. Guests can purchase additional tickets through Joburg Theatre using the exclusive media partner code BIMASH26 for discounted access. An official after-party hosted by Stages Restaurant will also follow the ceremony, with limited table packages to be announced.

As Basadi in Music looks toward the future, the organisation reaffirms its commitment to celebrating, empowering and preserving the legacy of women in African music across the continent, inviting partners, artists and supporters to be part of this historic milestone.
