Black Coffee
On April 10, the San Diego skyline becomes part of the performance as Black Coffee takes the stage at the iconic The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park for an unforgettable night of sound, rhythm, and soul.
Born Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo in Durban, South Africa, Black Coffee has become one of the most influential figures in global electronic music. His signature sound — an elegant fusion of African rhythms, jazz, and deep house — has reshaped dance floors around the world while remaining deeply rooted in his heritage. Every set is a journey: emotive, layered, and meticulously crafted to connect audiences through feeling rather than flash.
Black Coffee’s performance transcends the traditional DJ set. Known for his ability to blend hypnotic grooves with live instrumentation and cinematic pacing, he creates moments that feel intimate yet monumental — music that moves both body and spirit.
Fresh off historic milestones including a sold-out Madison Square Garden headline show and a Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Album, Black Coffee arrives in San Diego at the peak of his creative power. His global collaborations with artists like Drake, Alicia Keys, and Pharrell Williams have only expanded his reach, while his live performances remain deeply personal and intentional.
More than a concert, this night at the Rady Shell is a celebration — of culture, community, and the universal language of rhythm. As the sun sets and the beats rise, Black Coffee invites San Diego into his world for one extraordinary evening under the stars.
Please note: This is a rental event of The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park, presented by Non-Stop Events. The San Diego Symphony Orchestra does not appear on this concert.
Admission for ages 18 and up only for this event!
