Backsberg Picnic Concerts 2012

Backsberg Estate Cellars, in association with kykNET, can’t wait to have you on the farm for their third Picnic Concert Series


Brilliant artists such as Freshlyground, Francois van Coke, Koos Kombuis and Dan Patlansky will have you tapping your toes to their awesome acoustic vibes.

There is a slight twist with the concert this year as each of the performers will be bringing an up and coming artist with them to open the gig. It will be interesting to see who the artists believe is the future of South African music. 

Backsberg Estate, situated near Stellenbosch is the place to be on a Sunday in 2011/2012.

The Backsberg Picnic Concert series runs in two parts, the first five gigs take place every Sunday from 20 November to 18 December 2011; the second five - also on Sundays - are from 22 January to 19 February 2012.

There is no better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than relaxing in the sun in the Cape Winelands with a glass of fine wine as brilliant artists entertain you. Pack your umbrella, picnic blankets and lunches as kykNET and Backsberg take care of the rest. 

Audiences can choose to pre-book a special Backsberg picnic to enjoy with these sunset acoustic performances, or buy one of our famous lamb burgers at the venue.  And, of course, it‘s just better with a glass of Backsberg wine.

Pre-sale tickets for the concerts and picnics are available from www.ticketbreak.co.za. Tickets are R85p/p or R170p/p with a picnic and R100p/p at the gate. Children under 12 years get in free when accompanied by their parents. 

Admission to concert venue starts at 15:00, with the opening act starting at 16:00 and the main act at 17:00. For the full line up of bands, directions, comments, and more information on the series, please visit Backsberg on Facebook
