Ficksburg
The Cherry Jazz Festival
This Saturday, jazz sensations Lira, Ringo, Mafikizolo, Metso Bhudaza and others take over Ficksburg’s festival grounds for a one-day-only event. The concert forms part of the popular Cherry Festival, SA’s oldest crop celebration dating back to 1967. Starting at noon, the show continues into the early hours of the next morning, so pack a picnic basket and keep a cosy blanket close by. For programmes and more information on the festival, visit cherryfestival.co.za, or book your tickets at computicket.com
Durban
The Durban Pops
It’s time to don feathers, pearls and fascinators for a Great Gatsby-themed extravaganza celebrating the 30th anniversary of Durban Pops. In association with the KZN Philharmonic Orchestra, the Rotary Club on Kloof will be decked in ’20s flair for an evening of elegance this Saturday. All profits will be donated to SMILE and other charities, so your night of indulgence is also for a good cause.
Tickets available at rotarykloof.org.za
