Fans of US R&B superstar Chris Brown are gearing up for an unforgettable night as the “Under the Influence” hitmaker is set to perform at Johannesburg’s iconic FNB Stadium on 14 December. This marks Brown’s first performance in South Africa in nearly 10 years, and excitement is already sweeping across the region.
Presented by Big Concerts and Y, the event promises a spectacular showcase of Brown’s chart-topping hits and mesmerizing stagecraft that has earned him the title of “King of R&B.” Known for his dynamic blend of R&B, pop, and hip-hop influences, Brown’s music and performances have been likened to the legendary Michael Jackson for their emotional depth and showmanship.
Ticket Sales and Safety Guidelines
Tickets for the highly anticipated show will go on sale in a phased approach starting 1 October with an exclusive invite-only pre-sale at 10 am. General sales will commence on 3 October at 10 am, exclusively via Ticketmaster. Fans are reminded to avoid secondary sites such as Viagogo to ensure legitimate purchases, as Big Concerts warned that tickets from unauthorized sellers would result in denied entry.
All tickets will be fully digital, allowing fans to secure up to eight tickets per verified Ticketmaster account. To curb fraudulent resales, ticket barcodes will only be activated three days before the event, and transfers will be limited to 30 days prior to the concert.
For safety, standing tickets are restricted to fans aged 16 and above with a minimum height of 1.2 meters.
Born Christopher Maurice Brown, the Grammy-winning artist has redefined modern R&B with a career spanning nearly two decades. Fans can expect a repertoire of timeless hits like “Run It!,” “With You,” and “No Guidance,” alongside newer fan favorites.
With the FNB Stadium primed for what promises to be one of the biggest events on the South African music calendar, this December is shaping up to be one for the books.
