Kirstenbosch Summer Concerts 2015-2016

Kicking off in late November, the Kirstenbosch Summer Concerts 2015-2016 are set to provide even more outdoor entertainment than ever before! This hugely popular annual summer concert series remains one of the top highlights of summer in Cape Town, and for good reason. With a large lawn that is ideal for picnics, and a massive stage set up in a unique picturesque setting of the gardens, guests can enjoy some of the country’s best-loved artists, along with good food and good company.
