Theme - Ride the Wave

The theme for the 2024 edition of the Hollywoodbets Durban July was announced with a PR stunt on Sandton Drive in Johannesburg. 

The “vandalisation” of Hollywoodbets’ billboard on Sandton Drive in Johannesburg has sparked a citywide conversation about art, advertising, and the upcoming Hollywoodbets Durban July.

What initially seemed like an act of mischief turned out to be a breathtaking artistic statement by renowned Durban-born Graffiti Artist Shaun Oakley, popularly known as “Damn Vandal”.

The incident, which occurred during peak hour traffic on Monday 18 March, saw the massive billboard transformed into a vibrant canvas showcasing the theme of this year’s Hollywoodbets Durban July, “Ride the Wave”.
