It’s perfect excuse to dress up in your finest French attire as you join in the festivities of celebrating Franschhoek’s French heritage. The two-day event – July 13 and 14 – takes place at the historic Franschhoek Huguenot Monument. Festival goers are invited to dress according to the theme – your finest red, white and blue French inspired outfit – to stand the chance of winning the Franschhoek Bastille Festival Best Dressed title. First, second and third prize winners will be drawn on both days.

The marquee is guaranteed to keep out the cold yet still offer exquisite views of the mountain. Ample parking on the grounds allow for comfortable walking distance to and from the village. Sample the wide selection of Franschhoek wines on offer or treat your taste buds to the variety of delicious gourmet fare available to purchase from some of the valley’s well-known restaurants.

The quirky caricature artist who captures your Bastille experience to perfection, the popular Porcupine Ridge Barrel Rolling Competition, and live music add to the elements for a fabulous day out. A beret and baguette add the extra pizzazz needed for a memorable winelands French experience. The village, which will also be dressed in its finest French apparel, is a hive of activities and adds to the hype and excitement for which the weekend has become known.

Tickets to the Food & Wine Marquee cost R395 per person, and include entry, a complimentary tasting glass, wine tasting coupons and a R20 voucher redeemable on the day. Additional coupons can be purchased on the day. As tickets are limited, pre-booking via Webtickets  is strongly advised. Children under 18 enter for free. The festival times are 11am to 5pm on the Saturday, and 11am to 3pm on the Sunday. Sunday’s festivities are ideally suited for the whole family with ample fun kiddies’ entertainment for the young ones.
