Last week it was revealed that Tropika Island of Treasure would officially be back for a 9th season and would take place in the island paradise of Curaçao – a Dutch Caribbean island.
Raising the bar high, the show has announced Katlego Maboe as the host for this year’s season.
Katlego is probably best known as a host of the SABC3 show, Expresso. Year-on-year, he has grown into a well-known TV presenter, singer, voice-over artist, MC, model and actor – and most recently, a dad! His charismatic nature has gained him many fans, and his inquisitive nature and zest for life (and travel) will stand him in good stead as the returning host of Tropika Island of Treasure.
The celebrities who have been confirmed for #TIOT9 are: Simphiwe Ngema, Kay Sibiya, Nadia Japhta, Siphesihle Vazi, Ntando Duma and Bouwer Bosch. #TIOT9 will see these six celebrities and six consumer contestants competing for their share of smoooth fame and fortune and a shared R1 million Rand.
South Africans dreaming of joining Katlego Maboe and their favourite celebs in the tropical island paradise of Curaçao need to buy a promotional pack of Tropika and follow the instructions on pack.
Auditions for #TIOT9 will take place entirely online – a first in the history of the show, providing an opportunity for more people across South Africa to enter and stand a chance to win a spot on the island. For more details about this online audition process, be sure to keep an eye on Tropika’s social media channels where more details will be shared soon.
