Mark your calendar for 25–27 September 2026 and make your way to Riebeek Kasteel for the Swartland Olive Festival.
Taste your way through a fantastic selection of olives, olive oils and wines, enjoy live music, meet the people behind the products, browse the artisanal market featuring 50+ vendors and enjoy live chef demonstrations along the way. There’s also kids’ entertainment, making it easy to bring the whole family along.
The music line-up brings even more energy to the weekend, with Raaf / Bottomless Coffee Band, Robin Auld and more performing live across Saturday and Sunday. Whether you’re there for the music, the tastings, the market or simply to spend the day with your favourite people, there’s plenty to enjoy.
The fun starts on Friday night with the Friday Night Street Party, featuring a DJ, dancing and a long-table experience before the main festival weekend gets underway.
And Sunday has something special in store for rugby fans, with the Springboks taking on Australia at 12h00. The match will be screened live at the festival’s own Fan Park, followed by Robin Auld live – making for a pretty great Sunday afternoon.
Date: 25–27 September 2026
Location: Town Square, Riebeek Kasteel
Tickets are available via Webtickets (www.webtickets.co.za). Gather your favourite people, make a weekend of it!
