Rocking the Daisies Festival 2008

Cape Town rocks in the popular ' green' outdoor music festival!

The outdoor crowd and South African music-loving rockers-in-crime are counting the days remaining until the 2008 Rocking the Daisies Festival. Check out the 2008 Rocking the Daisies line-up below (Eagle Eye Cherry will be in attendance!) and get ready for a weekend of quality music on the spacious Cloof Wine Estate near Darling in the Western Cape.

As the ‘greenest’ festival around, Rocking the Daisies will continue to push the boundaries in terms of their own preparation and facilities and ensuring that while we party hard – we tread lightly.

You will find Great South African Music in our Music Section.
