Cape Town Pride Brand Ambassador:
Nkosinathi Sangweni waka Mtshali
Cape Town Pride is delighted to announce the appointment of Nkosinathi Sangweni waka Mtshali as Brand Ambassador. With a career spanning over two decades, Nathi is a powerhouse in the world of dance, performance, and event curation. From his early days at the Dance Factory and Jazzart Dance Theatre training program to his evolution as a celebrated freelance artist, choreographer, and MC, Nathi has captivated audiences both locally and internationally. As an advocate for dance education, he is dedicated to nurturing emerging talent, ensuring that the next generation carries on the legacy of movement, passion, and storytelling through dance. His expertise extends beyond performance—whether leading as a program manager, event curator, or master of ceremonies, Nathi’s versatility and commitment to excellence shine through in every project.
Nathi’s message to the LGBTIQ+ Community is:
“As Cape Town comes alive with the colours of Pride 2026, let us take a moment to honour those who paved the way for our freedoms while holding space for those who, for various reasons, cannot celebrate with us. Pride is a moment of joy and unity, but it is also a reminder of the work that remains. So, let’s march, dance, and celebrate—but let’s not be oblivious to the fight that continues for equal rights, representation, and justice for all.”
