Black Coffee continues making history. The first South African artist to ever win the Grammy for best dance/electronic album will soon become the first South African DJ/producer to headline Madison Square Garden.
The MSG show will happen Oct. 7, 2023. American Express members can access tickets on March 14, while Black Coffee’s top Spotify listeners can buy tickets on March 16, with tickets opening to the public on March 17.
The October show, Black Coffee’s largest U.S. set to date, will feature him, a 12-piece orchestra, surprise guests and a 360-degree stage setup.
The MSG show follows Black Coffee’s three sold-out shows at The Brooklyn Mirage last fall. The MSG performance is a co-production of Avant Gardner and The Bowery Presents, marking their biggest co-production to date. Black Coffee’s most recent release is his 2021 album, Subconsciously. He also worked on multiple tracks from Drake’s 2022 Honestly, Nevermind LP.
The show also marks continued momentum for dance music at Madison Square Garden, following Skrillex, Four Tet and Fred again..’s sold out show at the venue last month.
