“As the soul of Soweto, we believe it is important to create platforms that not only entertain but also honour the people who continue to shape and uplift our communities.
“This celebration was a tribute to every woman whose strength and resilience continue to inspire society every day,” said the marketing manager of Maponya Mall, Sharon Radebe.
The event was supported by Maponya VW and Cell C, whose involvement helped deliver a memorable and elevated experience for attendees.
The premium entertainment lineup also featured celebrated personalities and DJs, including Paul Mtirara, DJ Young, DJ Grant and Tbose, creating an atmosphere that united generations of women through music and shared experiences.

Radebe told Urban News that the celebration forms part of the centre’s ongoing commitment to creating meaningful community-driven experiences that celebrate the spirit and identity of Soweto.
The success of the Mother’s Day celebration at Maponya Mall is set to continue its calendar of premium cultural experiences, with its highly anticipated annual All White event scheduled for November 2026.
