Within just 24 hours of their launch, tickets to MTN Bushfire 2026 have already moved up two phases setting a blazing new record for early festival planning among our local, regional and international community of Fire Starters!
Main Arena tickets have moved to Phase 2 online, hot on the heels of Golden Lounge tickets moving to Phase 2 just hours after tickets went live yesterday.
Children’s tickets are still available at Phase 1 pricing. This is the perfect time to plan for a memorable 3-day experience at this family-friendly festival of music and the arts.
MTN Bushfire usually sells out a month before the festival. However, with this year’s early kick off, tickets are expected to sell out even sooner. So, hurry and get your online tickets now via the MTN Bushfire Tickets Platform whilst they’re still available.
The 19th edition of MTN Bushfire will be held from 29 to 31 May, 2026 at House On Fire in the scenic and peaceful Malkerns Valley of Eswatini.
Whilst on the ticket platform, you can also secure your pass to your preferred camping option in the official MTN Bushfire campsite managed by All Out Africa. Travel packages from Mozambique (Maputo and Tofo) and Durban are also available. MTN Tourist Sim Card & Mobile Data Packages can also be purchased directly from the Tickets platform for seamless connectivity at the festival.
Harambee and Rush Adventures are bringing their comfortable, luxury camping to MTN Bushfire 2026 once again. For more information, visit the Glamping Page.
