PinkDrive will be hosting South Africa’s first ever on 21 October 2011 at Emperor’s Palace, Kempton Park.  This concert will be featuring top South African musicians to the likes of Arno Carstens, Flash Republic, Elvis Blue, Lloyed Cele, Kinky Robot and Action Thrillers.

Fast becoming one of South Africa’s best-loved community initiatives, PinkDrive currently runs two “Pink” mobile breast check units – 1 in Gauteng & 1 in Western Cape. The educational unit travels to semi-urban areas around Gauteng with the aim of enabling various disadvantaged communities access to clinical breast examinations and breast health education performed by nurses.  PinkDrive services x80 community health clinics on a rotation basis. The mobile mammography unit operates at local Community Health Clinics in the Western Cape where free mammograms are offered.

All proceeds of this concert will go toward PinkDrive and keeping these trucks on the road in order to reach more women.

Tickets can be purchased through Computicket, or alternatively will be available at the door.
