Place of Dreams (POD) will be hosting the Tankwa Classics Festival from the 1 to 3 April 2022 in the Karoo hinterland. The event will take place in an ancient canyon amphitheater underneath the spotlight of millions of desert stars.
Tankwa Classics is a celebration of the arts and music, bringing together wind ensembles, pianists, cellists, opera singers and flutes, supplemented with delicious cuisine. A complete engagement of the senses.
In between the world-class selection of classical performances, guests are able to cool off in the infinity dam or take a stroll along the venue’s impressive art and sculpture walk.
The caterers at Tankwa Classics promises to spoil guests with a delicious Karoo inspired menu featuring an evening harvest table and breakfast buffet with vegetarian and vegan options available (dietary requirements to be specified ahead of time).
There will also be a two hour guided bush walk led by Jaques Tredoux, exploring Tankwa’s geological secrets, botanical treasures and experiencing the native Karoo animal and bird life. Touch, smell, observe and learn.
