We are officially two days away from the 10th edition of the DStv International Food and Music Festival, and people are adding the final touches to their garb.
Before you head out to Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit over the weekend with your sun hats and shades to have the time of your life at the festival, here's a list of the things you should know about South Africa’s premier food, music and lifestyle festival
What to bring
Bring sunscreen, a hat, a camping chair and/or a picnic blanket. Small hand-held umbrellas are permitted. And, of course, wear comfortable shoes because you’re going to be partying like a pro all day long.
What to leave at home
Don’t bring your own cooler boxes, picnic baskets, food or beverages. Remember, DStv Delicious is a foodie festival and you are here to sample the flavours of the world. You’ll be spoilt for choice with more food vendors and more bar frontage than ever .
Also note that no beach or golf umbrellas or pillows will be permitted in the grounds and drinking alcohol in the parking areas is strictly forbidden. There is also a no pass-out policy in place.
Money
The festival is once again a cashless zone, vendors will accept all major bank cards
Water
Unlimited free water will be available at the festival’s new hydration stations, or for purchase at the beverage stands.
How to get there
Parking is limited (see below), so we recommend using the Gautrain and/or a ride-hailing service such as Uber or Bolt to get to the event. There will be a dedicated ride-hailing drop-off and pickup zone for festivalgoers, to avoid traffic congestion.
Parking will cost R400 at the venue, but if you pre-purchase a parking ticket online, it will only cost you R100. First come, first served.
Security
To ensure safe access to the festival, patrons are required to download the Ticketmaster app, which provides world-class security around all ticketing aspects of the festival. There will be security at the main entrance to Kyalami, and throughout the precinct, during the festival. Additional security has been arranged to ensure your safety (and a stress-free festival experience) over the two days.
Gate times
On Saturday, gates open at 10am and the show ends at 9.30pm. On Sunday, gates open at 10am and the show ends at 8.30pm. Get there early to secure the best spot.
