The festival will also offer viewers ‘DreamCamps’ where they can get to enjoy the music privately with their friends or family (up to 500 people) via Zoom, the video conferencing platform, allowing them to hang out, dance and have fun together. Tickets for the event are free and available at howler.co.za but all participants are encouraged to donate.

The funds raised by DreamStream will go towards Safe (South African Fund 4 Entertainment), an NPO fund established to help support the unsung heroes and heroines within the live events and entertainment industry. In just 24 hours since it was announced, over 1,500 relief applications to feed 11,000 people have been received. DreamSteam is the first major fundraiser for Safe and is trying to raise R1m, which will aim to feed 11,000 crew members.
These people are the technicians, stage riggers, cleaners, security guards, bar staff, ticketing staff and more, who are very often hired on a temporary/hourly basis and are sitting at home with no income and food as a result of Covid-19 and the lockdown.
DreamStream Digital festival will see DJs play one-hour super mixes from several genres that include EDM, amapiano, house and hip-hop.
This lineup of musicians and DJs includes Lady Lea, Abby Nurock, Kid Fonque, Jon S, Strange Loving, Kyle Cassim, Special Guest, Jazzuelle, Dean Fuel, Dino Moran, Vimo and Watson, Anthea Scholtz, Karoo, Toby 2 shoes, Boogie Vice & Kennedy and El Gordo, Goldfish, Floyd Lavine, Culoe De Song, Richard Marshall , Ryan Murgatroyd, Mark Valsecci and Fogshow, Sonic Bloom, B_Type, Kanan K7, ILLING, Dogstarr, Maximilian, Nic Grater, Geometric Flux and Headroom.
To help, Safe has partnered with Pick 'n Pay’s Feed The Nation relief fund. Each R1 donated will go towards a voucher scheme, where each voucher to the value of R600 will help feed a family of five for a month by providing them with a basket of food and hygiene essentials.
To ensure that each voucher reaches those affected, Safe is working with event supply chain companies to identify those in need and deliver the vouchers via their employers or former employers. Employers of event supply chain companies are encouraged to apply for their employees or former employees to help manage the process.
