Mid winter madness hits Nelson Mandela Bay this coming weekend, our suggestion – take it easy this week as a jammed packed weekend launches at us from 10 am on Saturday with the annual Richmond Hill Music Festival, South Africa vs England third and final test match at NMB Stadium on Saturday night, and the Donkin Downhill Dash on Sunday. Phew! Too much excitement!
The Alliance Francaise have proven you can’t keep a good thing down or small – this year, as part of a cultural exchange between South Africa and France, the festival will feature 2 international bands: BRAKA from France and Davy Sicard from Reunion Islands, playing his eclectic blend of “Creole Jazz” They will be supported by South African acts, Nibs van der Spuy and Bongiziwe Mabandla and a host of Nelson Mandela Bay’s top talent, with music notes floating the streets of Richmond Hill. There will be a beer tent and big screen TV’s to ensure you don't miss any of the Rugby action!
Entrance is FREE – take some cash for crepe’s, baguettes and something to quench your thirst.
Saturday 23 June 2012. From 10:00 to 22:00
