Port Alfred is building momentum ahead of Easter weekend from 3 to 6 April 2026, with the Port Alfred Easter Festival continuing to broaden its programme across sport, lifestyle and community events.<\/p>\n

Anchored by elite junior and QS-level surfing at East Beach, the festival has evolved into a multi-day, multi-venue showcase that activates the town from the shoreline to the greens and into the streets.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Four Elements Festival \u2013 Saturday 4 April<\/span><\/h3>\n
The Four Elements Festival<\/a> returns as a central highlight of the weekend. The event brings craft markets, live music, food stalls and family entertainment into one high-energy street celebration. Popular competitions, including the Wife-Carrying Race and the Potjie Cook-Off, add spectacle and strong crowd participation to a full day in the heart of town.<\/div>\n

Saturday morning begins with the free 5km Port Alfred parkrun. Open to walkers and runners of all ages and fitness levels, the event offers an accessible and community-driven start to the day before the broader festival programme unfolds.<\/p>\n

Further event announcements will follow in the coming weeks as the 2026 programme continues to take shape. Together, the expanding line-up positions Port Alfred as one of the Eastern Cape\u2019s premier Easter destinations.<\/p>\n
