Mossel Bay’s Summer Sun Festival 2010

Get ready to rock!


It is totally impossible to believe that 2010 is already starting to wind down, but it is incredible to think that summer is just around the corner with all the sun, sand and sizzle we have become accustomed to in the Garden Route.

As one of the premier summer holiday destinations in South Africa, the Diaz Strand Hotel & Resort’s Summer Sun Festival is once again getting ready to set the Garden Route alight with exciting entertainment, jam-packed days filled with funtastic frivolity for the entire family and cool cocktailed evenings brimmed with some of the greatest talent South Africa has to offer.

Forget the lazy, hazy, crazy days of Summer…
Long, hot days filled with bronzed bodies and the smell of coconut oil in the air will once again be coupled with nonstop entertainment on the outside and inside stages, including the Blueprint Band, Diaz Dancers, as well as a myriad of stalls from t-shirts to tan lotion, towels to tank tops, tasty treats to tattoos.

All out action guaranteed…
No doubt about it, this summer there is no need to run around to amuse your children when our amazing children’s program is taking place on the outside stage of the hotel, featuring face painters, balloon modellers, and much much more!

Paparazzi Paradise…
A sure-fire winning day for celebrity and hot body picture taking will be on Monday, 29 December when the Four Cousins Wit Warm Touchies hits Diaz Strand. The Rob Louw Springbok Invitational team will be in the running for hotly contested glory, trying to defend their 2009 title – the perfect perch for some action shots...

Feeling tired yet? Well, get ready to don your dancing shoes for a “dawn of 2011 New Year’s ball”. Eat, drink and be merry welcoming in 2011, a year that is set to serve up big things for South Africa.

Come and share in the excitement, toast to the successes of the year gone by and ring in the new year with a BANG as the fireworks extravaganza greets the New Year with all the colour and flair befitting this festive celebration.

Adjectives do not to justice to the concentrate exuberance of the Summer Sun Festival. You have to experience it yourself.
