Grab a picnic blanket, round up your friends and family and enjoy a wonderful evening set against what is unmistakably one of the world’s most magnificent backdrops. Hosted by the Rotary Club of Kirstenbosch and proudly sponsored by Pick n Pay, and non-exclusive radio partner, Radio Tygerberg 104FM, Carols 2023 will usher in the Festive Season with your favourite singalongs, delicious food and the beautiful sight of thousands of digital glowsticks* lighting up the evening sky.
