DURBAN JULY 2026: Experience luxury at the 2026 Durban July with makubenjalo, Martell and Omoda collaboration
In a ground breaking partnership set to enhance the glamour of the Hollywoodbets Durban July, three iconic brands, Makubenjalo, Martell, and OMODA are uniting to create an extraordinary luxury lifestyle destination that promises to mesmerise attendees this year.
Following their impressive debut at last year's event, the trio is coming together once again, with Martell, one of the world’s most celebrated cognac houses, serving as an official partner. This year, they will unveil a luxurious marquee experience that seamlessly integrates style, culture, innovation, and the essence of modern luxury.
The theme for 2026, "Country Allure," elegantly blends heritage with contemporary sophistication. Drawing inspiration from the serene beauty and elegance of the South African countryside, the experience aims to celebrate authenticity, self-expression, and timeless style through a distinctly South African lens.
As the build-up to the iconic race day begins, the festivities will officially kick off with the Njalo’s Durban July Launch event on Friday, 26th June 2026. This exclusive occasion will gather South Africa's leading tastemakers, creatives, media personalities, and cultural influencers for an evening where luxury, entertainment, and unparalleled hospitality converge. Guests can expect an elegantly seated dinner and curated dining experiences, topped off with a stellar line-up featuring some of the nation’s most celebrated musical talent and DJs.
