ABOUT
TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR ON THE DAY
There’s something quite magical and authentic about winter in Elgin. Crisp mornings start the day with a heavy mist sunken within the dips of the rolling hills and a winter sun that shines stark over the many vineyards and fruit orchards amidst their off-season slumber.
….Elgin Grabouw Tourism are inviting you to come and experience the very first Elgin Winter Festival - WINTER, WINE AND WORDS over the long weekend from 9-11thAugust 2019. It will be a festival to celebrate all that we love about winter, fireplaces, red wine, world class entertainment, books and deliciously warm comfort food! There will also be a special focus on the ladies in honour of National Woman’s Day on the 9th. It's a great excuse to escape your hibernation and come to experience Elgin’s warmth in the cold!
A full winter warming schedule of events has been put together with an array of activities running over the course of the weekend at various venues throughout the Elgin Valley, they are pulling out all the stops and have put together a schedule of events to impress, entertain and warm the hearts of all visitors young and old throughout the weekend! Events include a first of its kind Elgin Winter Wine Fair, outdoor activities for fitness enthusiasts of all levels, horse outrides and pony rides and even open air river barging. Another exciting first for our valley will be a Literary Book CrimeFest for fans of crime writing, as well as a very unique “The Wine, The Women and The Wardrobe” market. The highlight of the weekend is most definitely live entertainment at the Elgin Railway Market on the Saturday night, where multi-instrumentalist folk-rock duo Bottomless Coffee Band will entertain all ticket holders. There is plenty for the whole family to come and enjoy!
