Go glam in Gugs at the 4th annual Gugulethu Wine and Lifestyle Festival. This unique event brings you three days of fabulous music food and drinks.

The drinks
It’s not called a wine festival for nothing! Do the Tasting Trail and sample your way through over 60 wines from various estates, including the unique Township Winery. There will be a showcase of rosé especially for summer, and you can brush up on your wine expertise with masterclasses from some of the Cape’s best local winemakers. If you prefer beer, you can indulge in a specialty beer range from SAB Miller. Catch a ride in a Bos Iced Tea tuk-tuk to the Bos marquee to taste their newly-launched tea flavours. Some other top brands that will be there to quench your thirst include Distell, Jameson Irish Whiskey, Absolut Vodka, Valpre Spring Water and Coca Cola.
