The Castle Lager East Cape Biltong Festival in Somerset East

15 & 16 July 2011

 At the foot of the Boschberg Mountain lies the quaint town of Somerset East in the Karoo, home to the annual Castle Lager East Cape Biltong Festival.

The Festival, started in 1991, draws hundreds of visitors to this Karoo town each year, where festivalgoers enjoy the local food, entertainment, culture and the variety of items sold at any of the stalls.

The Festival runs from 15 to 16 July this year and is a true celebration of Karoo living! 

Celebrating its 21st year, organisers encourage visitors to “come hang” with them and enjoy the variety of crafts, delicious food and interesting curios on sale at the Somerset East Showgrounds.

 There’s entertainment for the whole family in the form of children’s rides, music and competitions, along with some of the country’s most loved performers who will entertain the crowd. An endless array of activities for the young and old are also on offer.

The highlight of the Festival is of course the abundance of biltong on sale, from kudu and chicken to buffalo and even giraffe; there is a variety for everyone and the chance to try out something a little bit different.

 Entrance fees to the Festival:

Friday: R50 for adults and R20 for scholars.

Saturday: R60 for adults and R20 for scholars.

CASTLE LAGER EAST CAPE BILTONG FESTIVAL / FEES 16 – 17 JULY 2010

The Blue Crane Route Municipality has hosted this incredible event, celebrating Karoo food, especially Biltong, and the Karoo way of life since it was initiated in 1991 by the Swaershoek Farmers’ Union, and the local Chamber of Commerce.

The Biltong Festival / Fees is presented by the Blue Crane Route Municipality, and made possible by the generous sponsorship provided by Castle Lager.
The event takes place at the Somerset East showgrounds.

As with the previous Biltong Festivals, this one promises to be a great success, luring festival goers from far and wide with the promise of great music, to suit all tastes; over 300 stalls, and the opportunity to party long into the night, in the Castle Lager Beer tent and the Bokjol!
The stalls will be selling a variety of products: but especially kudu in all its forms – Kudu burgers, Kudu wors and, of course, Kudu Biltong
