Beats Over Streets – Vlakkeland Parkjam 2.0

In Vlakkeland, specifically the area known to locals as "Porkytown" on Olifant Street, a cultural community event is set for kick-off. On March 28, 2026, the air will be filled with the basslines of the Vlakkeland Parkjam 2.0.

Organized by local producer and artist, Zandre Wilskut (better known by his stage name ZIBO), this event is a sequel to a mission: providing a stage for those the mainstream often forgets.

"Getting booked as an upcoming artist is a struggle," Wilskut admits. His solution? Create the platform himself. By hosting a free event, he isn't just showcasing talent; he’s providing a safe haven. The goal is clear—keep the youth off the streets and away from negative influences by immersing them in a world of live music and dance.

What to Expect: The lineup is a "who’s who" of local rising stars, including KappaKindt, JAYBO, Mkay The rapper, Mr Bash, Jshin, AG-B, Shorty, Hilton, Jevigo, Jota, Rola, Jennas, and many more.

Wilskut is funding this entire operation out of his own pocket. In an era of corporate sponsorships, this is a "fully out of my pocket" labor of love. It’s a bold move that demands attention—and perhaps the attention of potential sponsors who claim to care about community upliftment.
