On Thursday evening, 11 December 2025, the heart of Potchefstroom will glow a little brighter as the annual LiggieFees@Potch returns to the grounds of the Abraham Kriel Children’s Home. And Armand Hofmeyr is set to deliver a performance that blends youthful energy, rich heritage and festive spirit, making his slot a true highlight in this community-curated celebration.

A Rising Star with Roots

Armand Hofmeyr carries the legacy of his family name into his own musical journey. He is the son of famed South African singer Steve Hofmeyr and has carved out his own identity in the music world. Born and raised in Kroonstad before moving through several towns, Armand released his debut CD Foto’s en Briewe at the age of 21, featuring hits like “Hart in twee wil deel”.

With subsequent albums such as Rug teen Rug and Lekkerlyf, he has built a repertoire of songs grounded in Afrikaans pop, honest songwriting and vibrant stage presence. His recent releases show growth and an eagerness to engage a wide audience.

Festival Fit: Why It Matters

LiggieFees@Potch is more than a lights festival, it is a vehicle for festivity, community and charity. Held each year on the grounds of the Abraham Kriel Children’s Home, the event draws families, friends and visitors for an evening of wonder, music and meaningful giving. Armand’s slot on 11 December carries special significance: it brings the event to a crescendo with live music of high quality, while aligning with the purpose of the festival.

When Armand takes the stage, festival attendees can expect:

A set anchored in Afrikaans pop sensibility and accessible to a broad audience, young and old alike.

A lively outdoor festival context where lights, music and community intertwine, his performance promises to be more than just songs, but a shared experience.
The opportunity to attend a meaningful event: tickets support a cause (the children’s home) while the entertainment remains compelling.

What to Expect from the Show

Armand’s musical style encompasses upbeat rhythms, modern production and songs with strong hooks and relatable themes. For example his single “I Need More of You (Hearts)” demonstrates his ability to capture broad audience interest.

At LiggieFees you can anticipate:

A dynamic stage set-up paired with the festive lights of the venue, creating atmosphere as well as music.
Audience-friendly songs: sing-along moments, rhythmic highlights and possibly new material showcasing his current artistic direction.
A performance timed for the later side of the festival, when the night is deep, the lights are bright, and the mood is celebratory, ideal for families, couples and music fans alike.
