The event was held off the back of the limited-edition Heineken® City bottles, each featuring one of 6 Global cities: New York, Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, London, Amsterdam and Johannesburg. Here is the deal, this summer, Heineken aims to inspire South Africans to live worldly adventures by unlocking the secrets of their cities. To celebrate the campaign, the global brand is hosting three epic music events in Jozi, bringing the best of Rio, New York and Shanghai to life and recognising Johannesburg as one of the greatest cities in the world.

The first #OpenJozi event was in the JHB city centre at The Warm Up, in attendance was the international graffiti artist, Fabio ‘Binho’ Cerqueira from Brasil who took to stage with renowned local graffiti artist Rasty. The international pairing came together creating a breath-taking audio-visual performance, combining interactive technology with performance, art and music.  The performance was facilitated by VJ (video jockey) and DJ team Afterlife, made up of Craig "Digital Lama" Shackleton and Wayne "Gravity South" Ellis Lee.
