Elandré, Zoë Modiga and More Set to Bring Christmas Cheer to 2026 Carols by Candlelight Delivered by SPAR and Jacaranda FM
Some of South Africa’s favourite musical voices will come together for a special evening of festive music and giving at this year’s Carols by Candlelight delivered to you by SPAR and Jacaranda FM, taking place on Thursday, 3 December at SunBet Arena, Time Square.
The 2026 line-up features an exciting mix of established and contemporary South African talent, with performances by Elandré, Craig Lucas, Zoë Modiga, Charlize Berg, Corlea, Ard Matthews, Lloyd Cele, Tarryn Lamb, The Muses, Tshwane Gospel Choir, Magalies Kinderkoor and Ruhan du Toit.
While the evening will bring audiences together through much-loved Christmas music, its purpose extends beyond the concert itself. Tickets are priced at R95 per person, with 100% of all ticket proceeds going directly to Jacaranda FM’s Good Morning Angels Fund, helping the initiative continue its work supporting people and communities in need.
This year, Carols by Candlelight is also partnering with Santa Shoebox Project, an organisation that has been bringing Christmas joy to children across South Africa and Namibia for more than 18 years. Through the partnership, Santa’s Shoebox will work alongside Jacaranda FM to help build and distribute specially prepared shoeboxes to children in need.
Each cheerfully decorated shoebox is filled with carefully selected essentials and treats, including a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, a facecloth, school supplies, a toy, sweets and a complete outfit of clothing. Every box is packaged, delivered and personally handed to its beneficiary child. More than just a gift, each shoebox is a reminder to a child that someone is thinking of them.
By purchasing a ticket to Carols by Candlelight, concertgoers will be helping to bring these special Christmas gifts to children who might otherwise go without, making the evening an opportunity to share the spirit of the season in a meaningful way.
For those who cannot attend in person, the festive spirit will continue on Christmas Eve. Carols by Candlelight delivered to you by SPAR and Jacaranda FM will be rebroadcast throughout the day on 24 December on the Jacaranda FM website. Whether preparing for Christmas, spending time with family or enjoying a quiet moment at home, listeners can tune in to relive the music and special moments from this year’s celebration.
