Robertson Winery are celebrating the re-launch of their “Boks vir Sports” box wines and they asked DPK to help them organize the parties in Stellenbosch’s Bohemia.
The 6th of August sees the interdimensional sound pirates, Mr. Cat & The Jackal, taking the stage for their well known multi-instrumental grooves, rowdy lyrics and raucous performance.
The princes of party, The City Bowl Mizers, will be descending on the town on the 13th of August, to ensure that the party goes well into overdrive.
Entry will be free, and wine will be sold for the ridiculous price of R25 for 2 boxes.
