Jacaranda FM adds that it will make South Africa's first major post-Apartheid government building home for the day to highlight the significance of the site. 

According to the station, this is from an Old Fort Prison Complex that imprisoned some of the greatest names in South African history, to the South African Constitutional Court and Constitution Hill.

Constitutional Hill — or ConHill as locals know it — was designed to embody the openness and transparency called for by the Constitution itself.

The station says that it hopes to drive awareness of the special museum and the South African constitution among those who may not yet have visited the site or read the Constitution — a world-class document of laws and principles that govern South Africans today.

"Our Constitution is the cornerstone of South Africa and must be celebrated, which is why we decided to kick off our Heritage month celebrations at this most significant place of contrasts," adds Deirdre King, managing director at Jacaranda FM.

King says, "As we remember our history and celebrate our liberation from it as South Africans, we wanted to shine a light on a constitution that binds us despite our differences — just like music does."

To celebrate South African heritage and history, the station will broadcast all day long from various venues around Constitution Hill and host special guests like:
  • Cheryl Carolus
  • Justice Albie Sachs, and
  • Robbie Brozen.

Individuals are encouraged to tune in with:
  • Breakfast with Martin Bester from 06:00 to 09:00
  • The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp from 09:00 to midday
  • The Workzone with Alex Jay from midday to 16:00, and
  • The Drive with Rob and Roz from 16:00 to 19:00.

"Jacaranda FM will also be launching our special Heritage Month surprise on the morning of Thursday, 1 September. We have a very special broadcast planned and we're looking forward to surprising our community," concludes King.
