Arts and culture sector vows to challenge minister
Cape Argus
|September 19, 2025
THE South African arts and culture industry is in uproar, preparing for a major showdown with the Department of Sports, Arts and Culture and its Minister, Gayton McKenzie.
The department is under fire for its decision to significantly reduce funding for major cultural festivals.
This backlash is further fuelled by the reallocation of R82 million from its budget, money initially earmarked for the now-abandoned Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology project.
This contentious move has thrown beloved events like the Cape Town International Jazz Festival, the National Arts Festival, Suidoosterfees, KKNK, Woordfees, Innibos, Aardklop, and the Vrystaat Kunstefees into deep crisis, raising serious concerns about the very survival of South Africa's vibrant cultural landscape.
