There are so many reasons why you should visit Maboneng and experience the unique culture that finds its home in the precinct. But if you haven’t made your way there just yet, then City Buzz is letting you in on five reasons to search #Maboneng on Instagram.
Anything Goes: In #Maboneng, anything goes. Whether you’re taking your furry friend into the nearest artisanal coffee shop, wearing every item of clothing that you own at once, or shooting a music video, it’s all welcome in the precinct where freedom reigns supreme. #Maboneng is the home of Gauteng’s Bioscope, one of the few malls made predominantly from shipping containers and soon to be the home of a skateboarding school.
Music Scene: The music scene in #Maboneng is rich with different flavours and genres. In this hipster hangout, you can listen to Jozi Maboneng Radio, live music at one of the exciting markets, or even take a spontaneous lesson on your nearest street corner. What a place to be.
Niche Shopping: You will find retail stores and venues unlike any other in #Maboneng. Cocobel is a one-of-a-kind frozen yoghurt store, POP Art is the only underground theatre and comedy club in Gauteng, and Bioscope, well who’s heard of a bioscope in the 21st century – enough said!
The Market Scene: #Maboneng is filled with all kinds of niche markets and they are the places to be. From the monthly Bula Boot market that offers an array of goods from the back of each of the retailers’ car boots, to Market on Main which is the place to be for all your culinary desires – there’s something for everyone at Maboneng’s markets.
