“Teachers are very good, I’m impressed. Thank you.” – Shaun (South Korea)
Up the Creek 2011
One river, three stages, four days, loads of music and comedy and 2000 festival goers with a passion for some of South Africa’s best music in common – get ready for Up the Creek 2011!
From Friday, 4th of February to Sunday, 6th of February, 2011, the usually quiet campsite close to Swellendam will once again be transformed into a slightly surreal spot of revelry, raging rock and soulful tunes, performances from another planet and shenanigans of the type that you can only pull off when you’re safely tucked in next to the mighty Breede River for three days.

Venue: Swellendam
Date: Friday, 4th of February to Sunday, 6th of February, 2011

Classic Car and Bike Show 2011
- LoadTemplateImage wb
The first Show, held in January 2000, featured only a handful of clubs, but it was clear from the first that this was a winning formula and over the next few years, the event grew steadily in popularity, both with exhibitors and members of the public. In 2006 the decision was taken to increase the event from a single day event into a two day event and to include Modern and Future Classics on the Saturday with Vintage Classics remaining on the Sunday.
This decision allowed the inclusion of more clubs and increased the field of interest to intrigue the younger generation. The main purpose of this event is of course to raise funds and as it grows, so the ability to help others grows with it.
In 2007, R10 000 was donated to Robertson House in aid of victims of spinal injuries and in 2008, R10 000 was donated to the SA Burn Foundation towards the printing and distribution of their new “Learn Not to Burn” program for pre- and primary schools. In 2009, they were able to donate R10 000 to Tape Aids for the Blind, put the money to excellent use helping visually challenged people to keep entertained, educated and generally informed. The 2010 charity was the Chaeli Campaign who also received R10 000 towards their amazing initiatives.
The aim is to keep on taking this event from strength to strength and in so doing, continue to make a difference.
