Concert Series at Avontuur Wine Estate

Indie folk singer-songwriter Emma du Preez sounds off at this month’s free tapas, wine and music evening in Stellenbosch

The much-loved FREE concert series at Avontuur Wine Estate is back on the Stellenbosch calendar to help people ease into the weekend. Occuring in the warmer months, the sunset sessions will not only showcase a hot live music act, delicious fare and, of course, top-notch wines on the first Friday of every month, but will also introduce attendees to the farm’s newly renovated tasting room.

The next gig features the talents of singer-songwriter Emma Du Preez, and is scheduled to take place on Friday, 8 May  from 5pm. Do note, this is the last gig of the season as the chilly winter descends on the Western Cape.

This up-and-coming indie folk musician has plenty of fans within the Mother City.  Her gentle vocals, with their easy listening quality and her stellar guitar-playing skills have left audiences spellbound.  Listen to live renditions of her tracks from her upcoming EP The View From Here. 

The string of sunset shindigs take place beneath a sprawling Bedouin tent on the terrace outside of the estate’s tasting room. Booking for the concert is essential as space is super limited, and patrons are welcome to pop in early for a quick cellar tour before nuzzling beneath cosy blankets on the patio for the live music performance (heaters will be on site to keep the evening chill at bay).

Guests are encouraged to make the most of this free concert experience and order one of the three options on the restaurant’s special musical evening menu (orders must be placed by 7pm); sterling Avontuur wines are also available for purchase on the day.

Doors open at 4pm, and the live music starts around 5pm and carries on until 8pm, with intervals in between.

Once the curtain has dropped, concert-goers can either ride off into the sunset or simply pull up a chair at the restaurant for an early dinner; bookings for the restaurant must be made in advance.
