NEWS: Christmas Fever with a Twist

With the town’s Christmas lights shining bright and the holiday folks starting to make their way here, the Christmas Fever is in full swing. The second instalment of the Fees van die Ganse Festival this past weekend was also the first of many for our festive little town and we await the rest with great anticipation.

And lo and behold, it is that time of the year again – the Christmas Market has started! Running from the 9th till the 21st of December and promises to be everything we have come to love about it. The perfect place to get that last-minute Christmas gift and chose from a full menu of home-baked goods to nibble on.

The Merry-Go-Round and other rides have also set up camp at the Gansbaai Primary School. Be sure to take the little ones for a fun ride while you browse the aisles at the Christmas Market next door. 

We look forward to the rest of the holiday season and all the festivities to come. Remember to keep a look out for the Big 2 Town Festival and the Danger Point Half Marathon along with the various artists performing around town.  

And as an extra little bang to finish off this year, today is Friday the 13th! Happy Friday everyone!
