Internationally renowned celebrities headlining local events organised by industry leading RX Africa this month include:

• Steve Harvey, a major name in global entertainment, leading the Botswana Ignite! initiative at FAME Week Africa 2024 in Cape Town from September 1-7. This initiative aims to spotlight Botswana’s creative economy on a global scale with insights from Harvey’s vast experience and influence in the industry.
• Dan Fogler, known for his roles in Fantastic Beasts and The Walking Dead, will elevate Comic Con Africa from September 27-29.

The impact of RX Africa's strategy, bringing international stars to South Africa, extends beyond the events to influencing perceptions of Africa as a global powerhouse of creativity and innovation. “We’re not just hosting events; we’re building platforms for lasting change,” says Carol Weaving, MD of RX Africa. “When global icons like Steve Harvey and Dan Fogler commit to our events, it sends a powerful message about Africa's potential. It elevates the entire experience, attracts global attention and creates a ripple effect that benefits everyone involved.”

RX Africa’s focus on attracting influential figures spans its diverse event portfolio:

• For WTM Africa, top names in global tourism are expected to drive investment in Africa’s growing travel sector.
