As we embark on the final chapter of winter, here’s a little insight into what’s happening indoors in the Mother City.
Upcoming events to look forward to…

- Zeitz MOCCA – Winter Storytelling Programme for Families…The Stories that ran away. Four stories from the museum’s first children’s book series will e read over the course of each Saturday in August. Served with some warm hot chocolate and marshmallows. What a wonderful thing to do on a Saturday when the rain is falling over the city. From the 3rd of August 2024.
- National Women’s Day – Head out to a long lunch table or a decadent venue surrounded by all of the great women in your life, celebrating their existence in your lives.
- Dance of The La Gumas – This epic theatrical piece tells the remarkable story of a heritage that was almost buried by the exile of the apartheid state.
