Bastille Festival
Festivals
Franschhoek, being the French Corner of South Africa, celebrates Bastille Day with reckless abandon. In fact, they like to commemorate their forefathers by celebrating for the entire weekend of 17 – 18 July 2010. Expect music and merriment – plus of course good food and wine galore. These are possibly the only days in the year that you can get away with wearing a beret! Other Bastille highlights include a food and wine marquee, the Franschhoek minstrel parade, a pétanque tournament, a barrel-rolling competition and lots more.
