The Wild Coast Sun hails the start of the summer
holidays in exuberant style with its Splash Festival from December 6 to 8, 2019.
The resort will be a hive of activity, fun, food and entertainment for the
whole family.
“The Wild Coast Sun Splash Festival is our opening
event for the 2019 festive season. We love summer. We love holidays. We can’t
wait to celebrate with our guests. The Wild Coast Sun Resort and Casino knows
that a family holiday is made all the more special by incorporating experiences
for the whole family to enjoy. This is what has made it one of South Africa’s
best-loved holiday destinations,” says Sandi Burger, PR and Promotions Manager
at the Wild Coast Sun.
Revelers will be blown away by live
entertainment by John Skuy and an awe-inspiring display by the Fire Academy
Dancers and a fire blower. Entrance to the opening event is free but sparklers
will be on sale for R50 each, allowing visitors to become immersed in the
lighting spectacular. Proceeds raised through the sale of the sparklers will be
donated to charity.
