Trendz Live | Winter greatness as we tackle the best in Lifestyle and Creativity | 30 May 2026

We kickstart the show with one of the city’s most iconic celebrations returned in spectacular fashion. Bassline Fest: Africa 2026 marked an incredible 20 years of celebrating African excellence, creativity, and artistic storytelling. “Chinese Media Group” is currently on tour, screening 2 films at the NuMetro Cinema in Hyde Park., north of Johannesburg. These films are making waves in China as box office hits and Trendz Live joined a few movie enthusiasts at the screenings in Jozi. This year’s marks the 50th anniversary of the Soweto Uprising and to commemorate the milestone, south African film producer Anant Singh, actress Leleti Khumalo and Videovision Entertainment have announced the release of a digitally remastered IMAX version of Mbongeni Ngema’s SARAFINA. The Hyding takes a different approach by prioritizing preventative care, helping individuals maintain balance before issues arise. Located in the heart of the city, They offer a modern approach to wellness and self-care that emphasizes prevention rather than restoration alone. Now, one of the most powerful things about storytelling is its ability to shift perspective, challenge the way we think, and sometimes even bring us back to ourselves. Earlier this Month, we launched a brand-new feature on the show, the Trendz Live Book Club and we are incredibly proud, to have our very first Book Club conversation and author, joining us in studio. Now onto wellness, Winter skincare is not just for women, men’s skin also needs extra care during colder months. Cold winds, low humidity, indoor heating, and frost can weaken the skin barrier, leaving skin dry, irritated, flaky, or dull. Adjusting your routine during winter helps maintain healthy, hydrated skin. Moving to an African part of the world, Nigeria. Where the grand finale of the 2026 World egun-egun Festival took place. The festival is full of colour celebrating the Yourba cultural heritage. As we wrap up Africa Month, The Africa Rise Music Conference has grown into a key meeting point for Africa’s creative industry bringing together music, technology and business under one roof while opening new doors for the next generation of talent. We wrap up the show with township Bloemfontein born. This gentleman is part of a new generation of young people rewriting history by preserving African storytelling and Sesotho culture through hip-hop music. He has coined and crafted what they call Tshipi Hip Hop, loosely translated to steel or a steel bell, using challenges that they resonate with by telling various narratives.
