Restless dreams will come to life at Constitution Hill, as the YouthX Festival (YX25) returns, on October 4, with its most powerful theme yet: Dreams don’t sleep.

YX25 is not only a festival; it’s a collective awakening. It’s where dreamers, dancers, doers, poets, and programmers breathe life into their visions. With Nedbank as the gateway, the festival celebrates youth who are loud, bold, and original.

At the heart of YX25 is the YouthX Awards, a powerful tribute to honour the power and potential of 10 young South Africans doing extraordinary things and creating change across industries and communities.
On the YX25 stage, one youth will be crowned the official 2025 YouthX Awards winner, taking their place among South Africa’s brightest trailblazers.

Music lovers are also in for a treat, with an exciting line-up of South Africa’s best music talent, including hitmakers such as DJ Maphorisa, Focalistic, Mellow & Sleazy, Shekinah, Shamiso, Sun-El Musician, and global rap star Nasty C.

John Makgato, head of youth segment strategy and client value proposition at Nedbank, said: “At Nedbank, we understand that dreams demand more than inspiration; they require support, visibility, and a platform. YX25 continues to honour the energy and excellence of South Africa’s youth. Those who refuse to sleep on their visions.”
