Jozi Kota Festival is one of the Biggest Kasie food lifestyle events in South Africa, it takes place in Johannesburg Town, as our Slogan says: Bringing Kasi vibe totown. In line with our vision to preserve our famous African cuisine, KOTA is the centre of the event; however, the aim is to provide a lifestyle and entertainment experience which also include activities for kids, this is a family event, and it accommodates everyone around the country.

The Kota Festival provides a platform for up-and-coming chefs and outlets around the country to showcase their wonderful offerings. Since the event is held at the heart of JHB, we also attract students from Wits, UJ, Rosebank College, and most colleges around Braamfontein.
