Friday Night Live is a series of beautiful, intimate performances from some of the most exciting talent Cape Town and South Africa has to offer, hosted at the KAYA Café.

Friday Night Live is an event for performers to take in their own direction, creating an environment for audiences to engage deeply with the music, the meaning, and the people behind it all.

This is not a show, it’s Sophia Frank’s world, and you’re invited to dance in it.

Join Sophia Frank for her first-ever headlining show at The KAYA Café, where emotion meets chaos, heartbreak meets healing, and pop meets rebellion. Expect raw vocals, stories you’ve lived through, and a set that feels like cracking open someone’s diary, only louder.

Opening the night are two of Sophia’s favourite local artists, Mila Smith and Teagan, both of whom have inspired her as an artist. Having them open the show feels surreal and full-circle, a night where inspiration and friendship collide on stage.

On stage, Sophia’s electric energy is matched by her dream team: Arianna Carini on guitar, her ride-or-die collaborator since her debut show, and PROD.NINE on drums, whose explosive rhythms bring her songs to life for the very first time.

From the anthemic “Overrated” and “New Boy” to the unapologetic “BICTH”, Sophia’s setlist dives through every influence that made her, from Hannah Montana to 2000s Avril Lavigne. Each song is a chapter of chaos, confidence, and becoming.

When the lights go down, the party doesn’t stop. Stay for the DJ, the Cosmopolitans, and the kind of night you’ll still feel in your bones the next morning.
