The Annual SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees has a new home under the Karoo sky.
From this year it will be hosted in a purpose-built venue at the Mayogi bomas on the R75 between the two Kirkwood turnoffs.
To mark the occasion and the 100th anniversary of Afrikaans being accepted as an official language, a free concert will be hosted on Thursday, June 26.
The Kirkwood Wildsfees will be held from Friday, June 27 to Sunday, June 29.
For the past 22 years the festival has been held at the Kirkwood High School, but had to be moved after the Eastern Cape Education Department banned the sale of liquor on school grounds.
“Everyone is very excited about the new venue as we were also bursting at the seams,” says festival director Jenni Honsbein.
“We have the support of our sponsors and the stallholders.
“The Kirkwood Wildsfees service providers, most of which have been with us for many years, have pulled out all the stops and are confident that we will stage a festival to remember,” she adds.
There is already an historical link with the site, as it is where the bomas for the annual Kirkwood Wildsfees Wildlife Auction have been built.
Shuttles are planned to take festival goers from the town of Kirkwood to the new home of the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees.
