Media personality Anele Mdoda took command of the stage as the evening’s host in an event that featured performances from the Bontle Modiselle Dance Studio, Mandisi, Nina Hastie, Cassidy Nicholson, Lasizwe, Christall Kay, Manila von Teez and Ina Propriette.

Winners were drawn from various categories including music, food, travel, lifestyle and gaming, among others.

Among the evening’s standout winners was Tyla, who won the Song of the Year Award, and Sifo the Cooking Husband, who claimed two awards – the Foodie Award and the highly coveted DStv Creator of the Year Award. Chris Rogers also earned double accolades, winning both the Travel and Lifestyle Award and the Best Creator Campaign Content Award.
