In every great story, there is a rhythm — a heartbeat that drives the narrative forward, connects people, and brings emotion to life. For generations, radio has been that rhythm for thousands of South Africans — a constant companion through change, a bridge between cultures, and a platform for authentic voices.
This November, that rhythm will resonate through the grand halls of the State Theatre in Pretoria as Capital Radio South Africa partners with the 3rd Annual National Film & TV Awards South Africa — a celebration of creativity, storytelling, and the vibrant spirit of South African media.
Produced by the Republic Africa, the National Film & TV Awards have become one of the country’s most influential events honouring artistic excellence. Each year, the Awards celebrate the visionaries shaping South Africa’s entertainment landscape — from directors and producers to actors, writers, and the unsung technical teams behind the scenes.
With Capital Radio South Africa joining as an official sponsor, this year’s ceremony welcomes a partner that not only understands broadcasting — but embodies the essence of connection, creativity, and storytelling.
Founded on principles of independence, integrity, and innovation, Capital Radio has long stood as a pioneer in South African media. From its trailblazing early days, challenging convention and amplifying diverse voices, to its evolution as a dynamic multimedia platform, the station continues to champion bold perspectives and authentic storytelling.
The partnership with the National Film & TV Awards is therefore a natural alignment — both institutions champion originality, diversity, and excellence. Just as filmmakers and actors bring stories to life on screen, Capital Radio gives those stories a voice — extending their reach far beyond the cinema into the hearts of millions of listeners.
As South Africa’s entertainment industry continues its rise on the global stage, partnerships like this highlight the power of cross-platform collaboration. The creative economy thrives on synergy — where film meets sound, music meets story, and technology meets tradition. Through this partnership, Capital Radio not only celebrates today’s artists but also invests in the future of African storytelling.
The 3rd Annual National Film & TV Awards, taking place on 22 November, will gather a remarkable mix of talent, innovation, and cultural pride. The country’s brightest stars and rising newcomers will share one stage to celebrate excellence in acting, directing, producing, and broadcasting. And thanks to Capital Radio’s partnership, this celebration will extend beyond the State Theatre — across airwaves, digital platforms, and communities nationwide.
Capital Radio’s commitment goes far deeper than sponsorship. The station has long been a champion of emerging talent — giving voice to new creators in music, film, and media. Its editorial approach — bold, intelligent, and unapologetically South African — continues to shape public dialogue and inspire creativity. Through interviews with filmmakers, live coverage, and cultural commentary, Capital Radio bridges the gap between the entertainment industry and its audience.
In an era defined by digital transformation and global competition, South Africa’s creative industries stand as a beacon of innovation and potential. From Netflix-backed productions to independent local films, the nation’s storytelling voice is being heard worldwide — and Capital Radio’s support reinforces the belief that media’s role is not only to entertain, but to empower.
At its core, this partnership celebrates unity through creativity. Just as a timeless song can define a generation, a powerful film can define a nation. Both demand courage, authenticity, and imagination — and both rely on platforms that understand their impact.
As the lights dim and the curtain rises on November 22, Capital Radio will stand as both partner and storyteller — broadcasting the triumphs, emotions, and unforgettable moments that define South African excellence.
This collaboration is not merely about entertainment — it’s about legacy. It’s about ensuring that the stories shaping our nation, whether on screen, on stage, or on air, continue to resonate for generations to come.
