Johannesburg is preparing for one of its most anticipated cultural moments of the year as the Milk and Cookies Festival and Milk and Cookies Music Week return in January 2026.

As the temperatures rise, people begin pouring into Gauteng’s attractions again. The return of this movement is exciting, yet it also calls for a clear message about travelling safely and responsibly.

Sharpeville is reshaping its identity in colour. A township long defined by the painful memory of the 1960 massacre is now stepping into a new era of pride, creativity, and self-determination. The newly completed Sharpeville Reservoir Mural has emerged as a landmark piece of public art that signals renewal. It reflects a community rewriting its narrative during a year that placed global attention on Gauteng through the G20.
