The DStv Mzansi Viewers’ Choice Awards (DMVCA) are back, following a two-year pause due to the pandemic. The awards, which are a celebration of local talent, will be held at Sun Arena in Pretoria on the 25th of June 2022 and will be broadcast live on Mzansi Magic (DStv Channel 161). Voted for by the South African public, the DMVCA will honour top achievers over the past two years in television, radio, music, sports and comedy.

We are thrilled to announce that Lawrence Maleka will host the fourth instalment of the popular DMVCAs.

The beloved TV personality, who was recently host of Big Brother Mzansi and also known for his role as Zolani on 1Magic’s The River, brings his trademark charm and humour to the proceedings.
