Local comedians such as Trevor Noah, David Kau, Marc Lottering, Riaad Moosa, John Vlismas, Chris Forest and Ndumiso Lindi will feature in the show called, 46664 It's No Joke.
To mark the 20th anniversary of the end of Nelson Mandela's 27 years of incarceration, the comedians will on February 27 take to the stage at Sun City's Superbowl for the first installation.
International director of the 46664 campaign, Tim Massey, said the campaign used the "universal language of sport, music and entertainment to deliver messages of care, prevention and hope to the youth and young adults of the world".
"We are delighted with the reaction to the announcement of Eddie Izzard's gigs and equally thrilled to have all these top acts, performing together," he said.
Real Concerts spokeswoman Kim Mari said: "The aim . is to involve even more international comedians . and to travel the world raising funds."
