Saturday morning brings Lollos, Regardt the Magician and the kiddos can get really going with Kurt Darren’s Hop Hop Spinnekop! As shadows get longer and the light becomes golden, we’ll head into some jazzy rhythm, before shaking off the night chill with Fagrie Isaacs and Bok van Blerk. The venue? The beautiful sport fields of Montana High School, right off the N1 in Worcester. Secure on-site parking costs just R10. And as for tickets, visit all weekend long for R160, or R100 for either day.
