FROM A THEME PARK TO TASTINGS, LIVE ENTERTAINMENT TO HELICOPTER FLIPS
The SA Cheese Festival caters for the tastes and preferences of every festival-goer, be it from cheese and wine tastings to live music entertainment and many other exciting offers.
Festival-goers will again this year have the opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of quality cheeses complemented by good wines as the perfect pairing.
While the festival ticket gives visitors access to all the free cheese tastings, a wine tasting glass can be purchased for R35 at the festival to sample the diverse range of unlimited wine offerings. To save money for the wine take your own wine glass.
Can you smell it? Great
In addition, well-known expert chefs will be leading interesting food demonstrations, sharing their insights on the art of culinary craft as well as on cheese varieties and the art of pairing food and wine.
The line-up of musical talent will include Prime Circle, Watershed, Gerhard Steyn, Elvis Blue, Tasché, Juan Boucher, Mark Haze and other artists whose performances promise to create a vibrant atmosphere.
Local bands making music
Along with their brand-new carnival-style theme park, there will also be helicopter flips from the festival grounds. Visitors will have the choice of either a two-minute flip or a longer 10 minute flight over the Cape Winelands.
SUPPORT LOCAL AND DISCOVER UNIQUE FINDS
Another addition to this year’s SA Cheese Festival programme is the Culinary Marketplace, which promises a treasure trove of artisanal creations, gourmet treats, wines, and more from local exhibitors showcasing their exceptional products to festival-goers.
Take friends–lots
