ABOUT THE FESTIVAL:
Now in its fourth year, Rocking the Daisies is the fastest growing eco-friendly music and lifestyle festival in South Africa.
Taking place from 9 – 11 October on Cloof Wine Estate in Darling (Western Cape), the festival will once again offer the best in live entertainment, lifestyle exhibitions and gourmet food.
With over 10 000 people attending last year, Rocking the Daisies 2009 will be full of cutting edge, quality music, interactive art fields and facilities aimed to cater for everyone from child care to comedic relief.
Being South Africa’s premier eco-friendly music and lifestyle festival, Rocking the Daisies raises the bar every year, incorporating innovative environmentally conscious products into the festival and spreading the message of ‘play hard, tread lightly’.
Rocking the Daisies has made it its mission not only to educate others on greener lifestyles but also how to take it home and incorporate it into their own lives.
