Hey Neighbour is back and they’ve announced Doja Cat as the first headliner for the weekend-long festival. The inaugural event took place in 2023 with Kendrick Lamar, Swedish House Mafia, and Khalid headlining. Today, the organisers took to socials with the confirmed headliner announcement, heralding Doja Cat’s first performance in the country.
She’s wowed us with hits like Say So, Kiss Me More, Paint the Town Red, and Woman. She’s the first female rapper to headline Coachella and only the second black woman to do so. Her versatility in music and visual art has solidified her as one of the most exciting artists of her generation, with a touch of eccentricity that leaves you wanting more.
“We are beyond excited to welcome Doja Cat to the Hey Neighbour Festival stage,” said Glen Netshipise, CEO of Hey Neighbour Festival. “Her energy, creativity, and ability to connect with audiences on a global scale make her the perfect artist to kick off what will be an epic festival lineup. This is just the beginning—we have more incredible acts to reveal soon!”
