The main components of the programme will include sporting events, activities, arts and crafts and local business and entertainment. The destination promotion of the greater Knysna area will form the backbone of the activation, focusing on sport, fitness, leisure, food, arts, the community and culture that we have to offer”.

Andrew Finn, the appointed Festival Coordinator for 2021, is already in conversation with the local organisers who had previously shown interest in hosting events. The opportunity is also available to local artists, performers and anyone who is keen to be involved in promoting their creative skills – these can include arts and crafts lessons, yoga classes and even knowledge-based webinars.
