Squish-squash!

Get knee-deep in grape juice and family fun at the 2012 Delheim Start of Harvest Festival to the tunes of a live jazz band. Gather from 12 noon on the shaded riverside lawns behind the historic Delheim cellar. Sumptuous picnics featuring gourmet fare can be pre-booked (menu here), while delicious snack foods such as beef fillet ciabattas, bratwurst hot dogs and chicken salad will be available on the day.

A competitive grape stomp relay event to be held at 3pm will entertain the adventurous (and doubtless amuse other guests) with prizes up for grabs to winners and grinners (team spirit champs).

Tickets will be restricted to the first 130 guests at R50 per adult (children under 18 free of charge); which includes entry to the festival area, live jazz, a glass of partially-fermented grape must, a traditional sweet mosbolletjie, a cellar tour at 12h30 and participation in the grape stomping competition. Picnic hampers can be pre-booked at R130 per adult and R65 per child, and takeaway foods, Delheim wines, soft drinks and coffee will be on offer throughout the day. Please note no BYO.
