The Stellenbosch Wine
Festival 2010 website has been updated, with
festival offerings and highlights. The festival
takes on an exciting new format this year and
will be held a month earlier to give soccer fans
the opportunity to visit the myriad of cellars
that make up the Stellenbosch Winelands. From 1
to 5 July visitors will experience the Winelands
in all their glory through an extensive network
of shuttles between the farms participating in
the Festival this year.
|
Park your car at any of the allocated
Park-and-Ride areas, or visit the Info Centre at
Doornbosch, to purchase your festival pass and
catch a shuttle to the wine farms of your
choice. Participating farms are offering
visitors wine tastings and untold activities
including the opportunity to rub shoulders with
your favourite winemakers. |
 |
Enthusiastic soccer fans can also join in the
wine extravaganza as transport to and from the
Festival has been arranged from Cape Town.
Visitors will also be able to travel to the wine
farms using their own transport.
Tickets for the Stellenbosch Wine Festival
are available on-line at R150 per person per
day, and R500 for the Golden Pass for the entire
duration of the festival. Kids under the age of
18 go free! For more information, click
