Passengers on board the 1pm flight departing from Cape Town International Airport to Johannesburg and those on the 4pm flight from OR Tambo International Airport to Cape Town were treated to a surprise Silent Disco performance in the sky.
Zolani, also known as ‘The One Who Sings’, performed LIFT’s official anthem, which was part of the company’s #upLIFTsa mission.

LIFT has hosted inflight performances for travellers since its launch, featuring numerous performances such as by Cape Town Opera and Divine Mahara, as well as a comedy skit by Schalk Bezuidenhout.
‘We’re on a mission to uplift South Africa, especially within the artistic community; the support of both local businesses and talent is important to us. By creating platforms for local talent to shine, we hope to bring a little upliftment to South Africans at the same time,’ says LIFT CEO Jonathan Ayache.
‘Our collaboration with Zolani Mahola for our anthem was just the start. We’re thrilled to have her back on board for a surprise performance. Our dream is to let LIFT become a springboard for musicians, artists and entertainers around the country. From here, the sky really is the limit.’
