Kirstenbosch Summer Concerts in December 2008

Catch some of SA's top musicians every Sunday at Kirstenbosch this December


Catch the likes of Freshlyground, Just Jinjer, Shaun Morgan and more every Sunday in December 2008 as part of the summer concert series at the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens in Cape Town.

The Kirstenbosch summer concerts, which run until April, have become synonymous with every Cape Town summer, and have a special feel to them mainly due to the breathtaking setting. Part of the charm also lies in the warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere, with concert-goers picnicking on the soft grass banks that slope downwards towards the stage.

While waiting for the concert to begin, take in the beautiful surroundings of the world famous garden and soak up the gentle late afternoon sun rays.
