The inaugural "All White Heritage Day Picnic '' will be an intimate all white with a touch of heritage/cultural themed outdoor picnic with live music performances to be held in Gqeberha, Eastern Cape!

This event is a lifestyle event aimed at celebrating Heritage Day while creating employment opportunities for our artists, SMMEs and PDI service providers, vendors/food trucks and local establishments like B&Bs, hotels, fuel stations, restaurants/fast foods, liquor stores etc. who will all benefit from visitors and locals who will attend the event.


Heritage Day on 24 September recognizes and celebrates the cultural wealth and cultural diversity of our nation. South Africans celebrate the day by remembering the cultural heritage of the many cultures that make up the population of South Africa. Various events are staged throughout the country to commemorate this day, this is a great addition to Nelson Mandela Bay and Eastern Cape’s events calendar. Attendees and the artists will be encouraged to dress in All-White but add a touch of heritage/cultural attire. There will also be traditional foods on sale at the event and an Arts and Craft Exhibition Market which will have exhibitions by crafters, beadworks, jewelers, local traditional designers’ wares, and visual artists which will all be in line with Heritage Day.
