After a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the TRUELOVE All A Woman Needs Festival returned with a spectacular day of intriguing conversations, overwhelming joy and glorious performances.

TRUELOVE editor-in-chief Makhosazana Zwane-Siguqa says, “We’re delighted to be back after two years of not having the event because of Covid-19 restrictions. We’re grateful to our event partners who patiently waited as we prepared to reintroduce the gathering. One of the aims of the event is to create safe spaces for women to let their hair down in safe spaces. It was lovely seeing the TRUELOVE community reunited in celebration of sisterhood.”
