Bokjol. For braai, booze and bacuzzis
Everything Bokjol will be everything local. Apart from the line-up and non-stop music, Bokjollers can look forward to an array of local festival activities:
- Bars and craft food stalls around the festival grounds serving both conventional and traditional foods (koeksisters anyone?);
- Dedicated braai areas with braai packs for sale;
- A massive Bakuzzi park (bring your bakkies, ouens!);
- Camping and caravan areas, along with other accommodation options Nighttime bonfires for you to kuier rond; and
- Plenty of safe and secure parking.
What’s more, award-winning comedian Schalk Bezuidenhout will MC Bokjol, ensuring that all the Bokjollers are always kept entertained.
