Meet the unforgettable characters that make every Matric Farewell a night to remember, watch the chaos unfold in the video.
South Africa (06 October 2025)- For many South African teens, Matric Farewells are more than just a fancy dance. They are a milestone, a celebration of years of hard work. Both for the parents and pupils, while looking their absolute best. While some schools have already held their big nights this year, for others, the excitement is still just around the corner. And while the students are the stars, it’s often the unforgettable cast of family, friends, and neighbours that keeps everyone laughing long after the last song.
This content creator, Sohail Rowen Booise shows us different types of characters one can expect.
There’s the mother running late, still struggling to find an outfit while everyone else waits. The photographer, who somehow manages to sneak snacks from the table without anyone noticing. Do not forget the cousin who treats the night like it’s their red carpet, posing for photos and giving fashion advice.
And the uncle tasked with the toast? Expect some awkward pauses, forced jokes, and heartfelt but embarrassing sentiments that make everyone chuckle.
It’s these hilarious personalities that transform a Matric Farewell from just another school dance into a chaotic, heartwarming, and thoroughly South African event.
