Disney Channel Premieres Brand-New Local Live-Action Shorts “Klik Klub” from Friday, 8 December
Series Led by Six Dynamic Young Actors With Guest Appearances By South African Influencers and Celebrities

JOHANNESBURG, 06 DECEMBER 2023: The Walt Disney Company Africa today announced the premiere of Klik Klub, a brand-new, live-action series of local shorts, on Disney Channel (DStv channel 303) from Friday, 8 December at 16:50 (CAT).
Airing weekly, viewers are in for a sprinkle of friendship, a dash of culinary creativity, and a whole lot of celebrity fun with Klik Klub. The Klik Klub is a cool after-school club where a group of kids of different ages hang out and send invitation letters to their favourite influencers. They wait in anticipation to see which surprise celebrity guest will knock on their door, carrying a mystery box filled with ingredients representing their childhood food memory. Thereafter, the group splits into two teams to cook up a storm with the mystery box contents and compete in a taste challenge.
The series is led by a group of energetic and charismatic South African kids – Bokamoso Khalushi (15); Diante Lee-Kye Bastew (10); Jordanna Valkin (11); Lubabalo Tala (14); Kimberley Orielle Strange (11) and Cebelihle Khanyisa Mbambo (14). They each bring a lively and exciting energy to the group dynamic, taking turns interviewing the special guests – learning more about their journey – or preparing, cooking and plating the recipes.
Jordanna Valkin, Bokamoso Khalushi, Kimberley Strange, Cebelihle Mbambo, Lubabalo Tala and Diante Bastew
The first episode on Friday, 8 December, kicks off with singer Sho Madjozi, followed by weekly episodes every Friday.

Klik Klub is another series of local shorts that have aired on Disney Channel, with the likes of My Magic Is Me – the celebration of children’s uniqueness – and the zany comedy adventures through history in Wandi & Kabz.
