Muvhango, the beloved SABC2 drama that brought the heart of Tshivenda culture into South African homes for nearly three decades, is officially coming to an end.
The final episode will air on August 8, 2025, at 21:00, a moment that will mark the closing chapter of one of the country’s longest-running soapies.
Since its debut in 1997, Muvhango has done more than entertain. It opened doors for Venda language and culture on mainstream TV, created career-defining roles for countless actors, and told stories that resonated with millions across generations.
While fans are sad to see it go, the show’s legacy will live on in the impact it made and the pride it instilled in cultural representation.
So mark your calendar — August 8 is not just another Friday night. It’s the final bow of a show that made history.
