Where Speed Meets Culture: THE APEX CLUB brings together South African fashion, luxury, automotive excellence and premium hospitality at Kyalami

South African luxury lifestyle entrepreneur and fashion icon Kefilwe Mabote is embarking on an exciting new chapter, bringing her distinctive vision of sophistication, style and exclusivity into the world of motorsport.

Through her luxury automotive and lifestyle platform, Kefi Wheel Torque, Mabote is introducing THE APEX CLUB, an exclusive motorsport hospitality and cultural experience set to debut at Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit on Saturday, 14 November 2026, alongside the prestigious Nine Hours of Kyalami endurance race.

In partnership with JoburgStyle Media House, the initiative brings together two brands united by a shared passion for luxury lifestyle, innovation, premium experiences and connecting influential audiences with extraordinary opportunities.

WHERE FASHION MEETS THE FAST LANE

Renowned for her international fashion influence and sophisticated approach to luxury, Mabote is extending her entrepreneurial vision beyond the traditional boundaries of fashion and lifestyle.

THE APEX CLUB represents a new expression of contemporary African luxury, bringing together high-performance automobiles, fashion, entertainment, business networking and premium hospitality.

The event is expected to welcome approximately 500 VVIP guests, alongside the wider Nine Hours of Kyalami motorsport gathering, which is anticipated to attract more than 10,000 spectators.

A PARTNERSHIP BUILT AROUND LUXURY AND INFLUENCE

AN EXCLUSIVE EXPERIENCE BEYOND THE RACETRACK

THE APEX CLUB is designed to offer guests far more than a conventional motorsport experience.

The programme is expected to feature exclusive hospitality environments, curated entertainment, live DJ performances, luxury brand activations, fashion experiences, automotive showcases and interactive motorsport attractions.

Against the iconic backdrop of Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit, the experience will bring together entrepreneurs, business leaders, fashion personalities, automotive enthusiasts and luxury lifestyle audiences.

REDEFINING THE FUTURE OF AFRICAN LUXURY

As global luxury increasingly moves towards immersive experiences, personal connections and cultural storytelling, THE APEX CLUB represents an opportunity to establish a distinctive South African platform within this evolving landscape.

For Mabote, the venture signals a transition from luxury fashion influence into the development of experiences and businesses that connect communities through shared passions.

For JoburgStyle Media House, the collaboration aligns with its vision of bringing together influential people, exceptional destinations, premium brands and innovative lifestyle experiences across South Africa and international markets.

Together, Kefi Wheel Torque and JoburgStyle Media House aim to celebrate the intersection of speed, style, culture and luxury.
