Back for the fifth year in a row, Thousand Sensations is the biggest beer festival on the Garden Route. It’s not just about beer though – the festival also showcases gin, wine, whisky, cider and even moonshine. This year the event has moved to a new venue at The Fancourt in George.

Starting out as a great big birthday bash in 2014, the annual fest still coincides with the birthday of affable organiser Alewijn. There will be plenty of food from local vendors and lots of live music.

More than 20 breweries will be pouring pints, hailing from the across the Eastern and Western Capes.

Tickets are now on sale for R80 for a day ticket or R140 for a weekend pass. Book your accommodation now and plan a long weekend on the Garden Route to celebrate Heritage Day on September 24th.
