While we’re getting ready for snug winter fires, Red Hot Events is working around the seasons to make sure that the most fantastic summer Cape river-party-getaways await you at spring fever time.
Known for for organising Up The Creek, the Red Hot Events team also introduced the wild boutique-festival two years ago – Savanna presents River Republic. Ticket sales for both Savanna presents River Republic 2017 and Up the Creek 2018 are now open.
Savanna presents River Republic, November, 2017
This runs from 24 – 26 November, 2017 at Round the Bend Lodge, Breede River. Here you can escape to the River Republic – where time slows and feet are moved by the rhythm of the river, and movements of the sun. Punters can catch their most loved local musos – DJs and bands, and play chess on a dance floor.
Artists announced so far: Nomadic Orchestra, Mobbing Bali, Jak Skandi and MT Seas. More artist announcements will be made this month.
Tickets: Full weekend: R860, Sat-Sun only R610. Both options include a cold Savanna on arrival. Kids 12 & Over R350. All tickets include a camping spot

Up the Creek Festival 25 – 28 January, 2018
Artist announcements for this start in August. Keep an eye on social media!
Since the summer of 1990 Up The Creek has been hosted at Up The Creek River Camp on the Breede River. With various stages, including a river stage at the water`s edge, you’re guaranteed to be entertained throughout the weekend. Although rock ‘n roll is the original music theme, there’s also pop, some indie folk, a couple of DJ acts and the odd violin solo on top of a kombi!
Jeffrey the Jam Van will be on standby to entertain you before the Main Stage kicks off, and the Sedgwick`s Old Brown Food Court stage run in the mornings and afternoons to showcase new and upcoming artists.
While the festival is one of the few remaining that still allows you to camp next to your car (should you choose) there is also a greener campsite where no cars are allowed or you can book pre-pitched tented accommodation at www.heartbreakmotel.co.za
It doesn’t matter if you have big biceps or skinny jeans, or an ironic moustache, or a non-ironic one – at Up The Creek you can be yourself and still make friends.
Tickets: R1030 (excl booking fees) – only full weekend tickets available
