  • Tickets to Goldfish at Kirstenbosch giveaway

    As usual, the Goldfish concert at Kirstenbosch this Sunday (6th March 2011, in case you’re reading this next year) was sold out within a short while of the remaining tickets going on sale. There is a reason for this, it’s always a great concert. Sadly this means that there are many disappointed people out there…

  • BMW Polo Tournament ticket giveaway

    Polo is something I’ve normally only seen in movies, a game for the wealthy. I thought I was a fancy pants going to the Met or the Queen’s Plate but didn’t think I would progress from horse races to polo. Now I’ve been to polo matches a few times and it’s pretty cool. It’s actually…

  • Best Pub Lunch in Town

    SAB is running a cool competition/promotion to find the best pub lunch in Cape Town for under R50. They have 56 venues signed up to participate. The way it works is that you go to one of the participating pubs (the list of pubs is on the website) and you either check in with Foursquare…

  • Queen’s Plate ticket giveaway

    Last year I was fortunate enough to attend the L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate. It was my first experience of the Queen’s Plate and it was fabulous. It was very different from the J&B Met and you can read my full review here. Every year the event gets bigger and better and this year is even more…

  • Cafe Paradiso meal for two giveaway

    Madame Zingara has been a busy lady. She started with the Bombay Bicycle Club, then took over the Sidewalk Cafe, then Cafe Mozart and now finally, Cafe Paradiso. Nobody can deny Madame Zingara’s magic touch as every place she has taken over has gone from empty every night to full every night. Her latest project,…

  • Craft Beer Festival ticket giveaway

    On the 23rd of September, 2010, the first craft beer festival in Cape Town will take place at the Neighbourgoods Market in Salt River. There are only two types of people that should attend this event, those who drink beer and those who don’t. Beer drinkers need to attend so that they can be introduced…

  • Look & Feel Good Expo ticket giveaway

    One of the things I like about Capetonians is that they are quite active and enjoy the outdoors, whether that be spending a day at the beach, trail running, hiking, mountain biking, etc. However, Winter does reduce the options quite considerably and we sometimes find that come the end of winter we’re not quite in…

  • Madame Zingara Theatre of Dreams ticket giveaway

    The Madame Zingara Theatre of Dreams is back! You can never believe all the rumours you hear, but I think most of us were not expecting to see her again. I, for one, am very pleased to see her return. I always believed the Tent of Dreams was an exciting addition to Cape Town. I…

  • Good Food & Wine Show ticket giveaway

    The Good Food & Wine Show gets bigger and better every year and this year they have really ramped it up. Taking place at the ICC from the 13th to 16th May, you will be impressed at what you get for your money. I stole this list of highlights off their website: Chefs In Action…

  • Taste of Cape Town 2010 ticket giveaway

    We did a giveaway with Cloof wines a few months ago and that was very successful, except that one of the winners was in the USA as we forgot to specify SA only! Anyway, Cloof were very accommodating and have made a plan to get her some wine. We have another great giveaway (for Capetonians,…
