Robertson Wacky Wine Weekend
Best for
The Breede River Valley's irreverent winter wine festival brings a carnival atmosphere to the Robertson wine route, with 50+ wineries offering unusual tastings, live music, and food stalls. The 'Wacky' format means each winery creates a unique, often comedic or theatrical event — live animals, costume contests, and impromptu parades are not unusual. South Africa's most fun, least formal wine weekend.
