We House Sundays 2-Day Outdoor Festival Kicks Off Summer

There are 20 local and three international DJs on the line-up

Dance music faithfuls and lovers of good music, vibes and food, now have a two-day outdoor gathering to indulge their love of house music. That's because tickets for the We House Sunday Festival, on from 14–16 December, 2019 in Cloof Wine Estate, are now on sale. 

ALL CULTURES, MUSIC, ARTISTS

WHS will be hosting their 5th outdoor festival, a welcomed extension of the monthly gatherings that celebrate the true essence of House music and bring together diverse cultures, connecting artists, music lovers and dancers from around the globe.

ALL AGES, ALL STYLES AND JUST DANCE

The idea for the festival came about as a natural progression of the Sunday events, says co-founder David Dix. “There are many festivals here in Cape Town during the summer but none really catering to our style of music. We’re wanting to expand our Sunday events to new experiences and explore new ideas.”

ONE BIG NATION OF MUSIC LOVERS

Everyone who attends the monthly WHS agrees that it feels like one big family of love and unity.

The love, the music, the people, the energy, this makes the place one giant nation of House heads and I feel right at home” says a regular attendee of WHS.

“It’s about the people, the music, and dancing together as one. The feeling on the dancefloor is indescribable” says another

If these are the sentiments from the one-day events of this Cape Town music institution, imagine what it’s like at an entire two days of House bliss at one of the prettiest venues in the Western Cape; Cloof Wine Estate.

YOU CAN CAMP THE EASY WAY

There are two ways you can do this weekend, camping and camping, but it can be BYO or comfy. BYO means you bring your own tent and camping equipment, and you’ll need to arrive early and hustle to get your ideal spot – it’s first come first served. Campsites have shower and toilet facilities.

The comfort camping option still offers the essence of the camping experience, but without the schlep of setting it up yourself. You get a ready-pitched vinyl tent with two single mattresses. This option includes priority parking, toilets and showers.

NB: Bedding and pillows are not included in both options.

TICKET PRICES: PHASE ONE TICKETS ARE SOLD OUT
BYO packages consist of one festival pass and accommodation for two nights at Cloof Wine Estate.

Phase Two tickets are priced at R450 ( Phase One tickets are sold out). Comfort camping gives you two festival passes as well as a ready-made camping spot for two nights.

Tickets for this option are priced at R1 345 per couple and you can get your tickets by booking online.
