Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
Parties, travel, and family celebrations - celebrities are ready for lockdown level 1!
South Africa's A-list stars have joined the masses in celebrating President Cyril Ramaphosa's announcement that the country will move to a level 1 lockdown on Sunday.
"Now is the time to return our country, its people and our economy to a situation that is more normal, that more resembles the lives that we were living six months ago," the President said in his address on Wednesday.
The ban on international travel has been lifted and venue restrictions have been eased.
From October 1, you will be allowed to "travel into and out of South Africa for business, leisure, and other travel", but restrictions will apply for high-risk countries.

Travelers will also need to have a negative COVID-19 test result in their possession that is not older than 72 hours.
Venues will now be able to accommodate more people - 250 people max (indoors) and 500 (outdoors), which means entertainers will be able to start hosting gigs again.
Celebrities could not contain their excitement following the news.
