(en) La musica del Botswana comprende numerosi generi di musica tradizionale (corrispondenti alle diverse etnie del paese, musica religiosa, e alcuni generi di musica pop moderna. L'insegnamento della musica (in particolare delle musiche tradizionali locali) è parte integrante del programma delle scuole di tutti i livelli. (it) Musiken i Botswana är en del av alla olika kulturer som finns i landet. Körsång är en stor del av skolsystemet, och sysselsätter en stor del av den unga befolkningen. Jazz är den vanligaste musikformen. Den mesta musiken inspireras av länder i Europa, av Sydafrika och av USA. Utöver jazzen är pop, hiphop och folkmusik vanliga genrer. En populär musikgenre är gumba-gumba, en moderniserad jazzinspirerad blandning av musik från zulu- och tswanafolken. Folkmusik är vanligt. Kwasa kwasa är en afrikansk version av rumba som är populär i landet. Tswana-ordet gobina används i Botswana om både musik och dans, och man gör ingen skillnad mellan de båda. Tswanafolket är känt för flöjtgrupper som använder sig av så kallad "hocket"-teknik, det vill säga att varje musiker bara spelar en enda ton, och att man genom att spela i en bestämd turordning skapar melodin. Endast män tillåts delta i sådana grupper. Varje år hålls folkmusikfestivalen National Music Eisteddfod i Selebi-Phikwe.
