Do you enjoy live classical music concerts? Then this is one event you need to add to your event calendar. Experience a classical music performance amidst the beauty of the Cape Winelands at Rhebokskloof’s beautiful estate where the art of music harmonises with the pristine natural environment of the Paarl wine valley.

Fire Island Conservation will be hosting the world’s first concert tour for sea turtles – a Symphony in Sea Major – featuring the internationally acclaimed Viennese Schönbrunn Palace Orchestra. This is the first event of its kind, leading up to a 2025 World Tour that will celebrate the 100th anniversary of Austrian composer, Johann Strauss.

During this year’s tour, the orchestra will be visiting venues across Southern Africa in March and April, with various public and private events. Proceeds from the ticket sales will go toward Fire Island Conservation’s efforts to rehabilitate and protect the sea turtle.

Coinciding with Easter Weekend, Saturday, 8 April will be extra special for guests of all ages. Families and groups can enjoy a beautiful Symphony in Sea Major on the lawns by the lake with a picnic, or guests can bring their own food. There will also be a special play area for kids on the day.

Adults: R250
Children (5-10 years): R150
Children under the age of 5: FREE
Times: 14:00 – 18:00

On Auction: A Riverfront Country Estate Where Art, Architecture & Nature Live in Harmony

Tucked within the exclusive Korhaan River Estate, where fewer than 30 families share in the quiet luxury of open skies, river breeze and uninterrupted privacy, this remarkable property brings country living to life with elegance, intention, and a touch of soul.

Set along the gentle Leeuspruit River — just a short flow from the mighty Vaal — the estate unfolds across 70,500m² of manicured grounds, three shimmering dams, and sweeping lawns made for unhurried afternoons. It’s the kind of setting where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings settle beneath a canopy of stars — whether as a permanent sanctuary or a sophisticated weekend retreat from city rush.
