Reading Time: 4 minutes

The weekend is calling and it’s not leaving a voicemail.
From the first beat to the last sip, Eswatini’s nightlife is clocking in for a marathon of good music, chilled company, and that unmistakable weekend glow we all crave after a long week of adulting.


Whether you’re the early-bird cocktail sipper or the 3am dance floor philosopher, this line-up has something to match your energy and possibly test your stamina.

Starting today, the city’s rhythm belongs to 23:28 Lounge, where Play for the City takes centre stage. It is not just another party, it’s a sonic takeover led by DJ Tibza and DJ Mbo, with DJ Wicked and Big Boy turning up the heat. It’s the kind of night where the bass feels personal, the drinks flow like confessions and the vibe reminds you why Fridays were invented. Best part? Entry is free, so your only expense is your dignity when that dance move does not land.
Meanwhile, Mzimba View Shisanyama is throwing a full-blown celebration with Pens Down, the name says it all. Done with the grind? Time to unwind! Expect heavy hitters like Zulu D, Sgitha, Lady Zee, President, Sweet Shandis and Bab Dlamini lighting up the stage. Entry’s just E50 after 9pm, which is a steal for a night that promises more fire than your group chat on payday.

Tomorrow, the vibe slides into Groove Till Dawn at Xchange Lounge & Shisanyama, where Bistro, Teesto, Black Cnatra, Tasha, Ace Ma, Daza and more will be on deck.
The name does not lie, this one goes until the sun starts peeking through your questionable life choices. Get there before 8pm for free entry; after that, it is E30 , still cheaper than therapy.
So clear your schedule, charge your phone and maybe your moral compass because this weekend, Eswatini is not sleeping. It is grooving responsibly. Sort of.
