1 November 2019 Month-end and weekends - name a better duo. I dare you. Despite it being Halloween weekend, we do not foresee many dressing up as pumpkins but rather taking in music and sunshine wherever one can find it. This November we’re living our best socialite life, with not one, but two neighbourhood markets tempting patrons. El Barrio hosts its 6th Neighbourhood Market, with the fitting theme Dia De Los Muertos (Day Of The Dead) on Friday, 1 November from 16h00 till 22h00.
What’s happening. It’s getting hot. Temperature soaring, the sun’s rays relentless and we’re nearing elections - it’s getting hot! Windhoek will no longer be our little haven, soon we’re all going to run off to the beach, escaping for the cool breeze at the coast. So instead of taking the weekend elsewhere, let’s fall back in love with our capital city this November. Let’s enjoy her allure, it sure is a busy month with plenty of choices to keep you entertained.
1 November 2019 On the other side of town, the City Market beckons all to come and enjoy local and international delicacies at the market’s new home, the Windhoek Country Club and Casino. Doors are open from 16h00 till 22h00. Why don’t you try to make an entrance at both events?
2 November 2019 As if this weekend isn’t busy enough and you’re looking to boogie in the sweltering heat, the Jazz Festival, the annual celebration of rhythm, blues and afrofunk is back on Saturday, 2 November 2019 at the Independence Stadium. This year’s headliner is the icon, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, joined by Vusi Nova and our favourite crooner, Sean K. Gates open at 12h00. It doesn’t stop there.
2 November 2019 A little meander out of the city will lead you to the Midgard Taste Festival. Midgard’s pristine country backdrop is the perfect setting for a family fun day, with a taste experience waiting to happen. This one is for foodies, and the lucky fans of Freshly Ground, as the afro-fusion band will be headlining. Don’t worry, Midgard’s Taste Festival starts at 09h30 and wraps up at 23h00 before the night gets too rowdy.
