Africa’s First Integrated Creative Summit & Expo Arrives in Johannesburg
Cinegear World | 27–29 May 2026 | Sandton Convention Centre
Johannesburg, South Africa — The continent’s creative industries will unite for the first time under one roof as Africa Cinegear World Expo launches its inaugural Integrated Creative Summit from 27–29 May 2026 at the Sandton Convention Centre. This landmark gathering becomes the first on the continent to bring podcasters, content creators, filmmakers, broadcasters, producers, and emerging technology innovators together in one connected ecosystem.
Hosted in the heart of Africa’s richest square mile, Cinegear World ushers in a new era of collaboration across the full value chain — from concept development to production, post-production, distribution, and the fast-growing creator economy. While South Africa has long hosted respected film festivals, media conferences, and digital innovation showcases, none have fully integrated the industries shaping Africa’s creative future. Cinegear World fills this critical gap with four major verticals running simultaneously:
• Africa’s First Podcast Summit
• Content Creator & Social Media Summit
• Film Industry Dialogue
• Broadcast, Gear & Technology Expo
This unified, cross-industry model allows Cinegear World to connect audio storytellers, short-form creators, broadcasters, filmmakers, production houses, technology innovators, and emerging AI-driven tools in one dynamic environment.
