In 2019 Fokofpolisiekar celebrated their 16th birthday with the Fokof Sweet 16 event at Loftus Versfeld (on the D-Field) in Pretoria.

Fokof Sweet 16 was a memorable affair, featuring performances by Hellcats, Fuzigish and Fokofpolisiekar. It was a boiling hot day in the capital city and it was one of the coolest events that attended in 2019. The whole Fokofpolisiekar set was recorded and released as a Live Album.
The whole event was a memorable affair. I remember the energy that the 4000+ strong crowd projected. It was extremely intense and very positive overall. I actually remember this show very clearly because the amount of Jägermeister I consumed on the day was a lot less than usual.
Fokofpolisiekar utilized an inflatable boat device during their set and I think Francois Van Coke jumped onto it at least 5 times. I snapped this photo of Frannie and the inflatable on during their set and it has been selected as this week’s photo of the week on SA Music Zone,
