All roads will lead to the southern
Drakensberg this Easter for the 25th Splashy Fen Music Festival – its milestone
quarter-century!
The tranquil Underberg farm on which the
annual Splashy Fen Music Festival is held, will soon transform into a colourful
tent town when thousands of people from around the country descend on the
southern Drakensberg for a long weekend of live music in a spectacular mountain
setting.
Splashy Fen #25 promises a line-up of more
than 80 of South Africa’s hottest acts, including the likes of Jeremy Loops,
Matthew Mole, Gangs of Ballet, Arno Carstens & Francois van Coke, Chris
Chameleon, Dan Patlansky, The Kiffness, to name a few. And as part of the
quarter-century celebrations, this year will also see the return of some of the
‘showstopper’ bands that have helped build Splashy into the premier music
showcase that it is today – think big names like Just Jinjer, Squeal, Tree63
and WONDERboom!
Festival-goers can expect non-stop
entertainment, top-class sound and lighting, as well as side-splitting stand-up
comedy, loads of exciting food and drink outlets, a vibrant craft market and
retail area, plus various camping and accommodation options. And that’s not
forgetting the stunning mountain vistas, winding river and open fields that
have earned Splashy its reputation as the ultimate outdoor experience!
South Africa’s longest-running annual music
festival, Splashy Fen has something for everyone; in fact there’s nothing else
quite like it! For many it’s become an annual tradition, and if you’ve never
been before, then it definitely deserves a spot at the top of your ‘must-do’
list!
Splashy Fen #25 runs from April 17 to 21. Tickets
available at Computicket include camping for the entire four-night, five-day
festival. For more information, visit www.splashyfen.co.za
