There was a time when creativity wasn’t dictated by algorithms. When storytelling wasn’t reduced to trends and templates. When creators made things simply because they felt compelled to create.
That spirit is returning to Cape Town.
On 27 – 28 February 2026, from 10h00 to 15h00, GoLive! — The Content Creator Edition — takes over 56 Roeland Street, Cape Town, bringing with it a fresh, immersive experience designed for modern digital storytellers who want more than just another industry event.
Hosted by Orms Direct, GoLive! 2026 promises to be bigger, more interactive, and more hands-on than ever before.
And this year, they’re upping the ante.
Immersive Creator Pods: Where Nostalgia Meets Modern Content
At the heart of GoLive! 2026 are immersive content creator pods — retro-inspired sets crafted for today’s digital platforms.
Think iconic vinyl cover aesthetics. The electric pulse of a vintage arcade. The neon glow of a classic diner. The cinematic charm of a VHS-era video store.
Each space is purpose-built for both photo and video, offering clean, bold, visually striking environments with a nostalgic edge. For creators seeking fresh visual language in a saturated content landscape, these pods are not just backdrops — they are storytelling tools.
The concept is simple: remove the friction between imagination and execution. Step in. Shoot. Create.
A Rare Opportunity to Connect with Industry Giants
GoLive! is not just about aesthetics. It’s about access.
Under one roof, some of the biggest names in imaging and content creation will be present — including Canon, Sony, DJI and Nikon, alongside many more leading brands.
Attendees will have the rare opportunity to:
-
Speak directly to brand representatives
-
Ask practical questions about gear selection
-
Explore equipment hands-on
-
Gain real insight into what brands look for in key content creators
Whether you are just starting out or looking to level up your production quality, this is a space for honest conversations and smarter decisions.
Meet the Ambassadors: Real Advice from Real Creators
Beyond the gear, GoLive! puts creators face-to-face with top brand ambassadors and industry professionals who understand the realities of building a creative career.
Expect practical tips for content creation. Honest conversations about why specific gear matters. Insight into growing your platform and monetising your craft.
This is not theory — it’s experience shared by those who have navigated the industry from the inside.
Exclusive Deals and Big Wins
During the two-day event, attendees can also expect:
-
Exclusive gear deals
-
Multiple opportunities to win exciting prizes
For creators planning their next investment, timing could not be better.
Why GoLive! Matters Now
In a digital world driven by metrics, GoLive! feels like a reset. A reminder that great content begins with curiosity, experimentation and connection — not just optimisation.
It’s a return to creating for the love of it.
For digital storytellers ready to refine their craft, expand their network, and immerse themselves in hands-on creativity, this event is not to be missed.
