Step away from the everyday and enjoy a day hiking outdoors at Wonderboom Nature Reserve.

Babe in Shape is a REFORMER Pilates experience designed for women, by women, where movement, wellness, and community come together.

There are few names in the world of beverages that carry the same quiet authority as Schweppes. Since 1783, the brand has defined what it means to drink well – not loudly, but with intention. Now, in a moment where taste, ritual, and restraint are shaping how we socialise, Schweppes returns with a reimagined identity that places flavour and connection at the centre of the experience.

In a wellness landscape increasingly driven by transparency and taste, ButtaNutt has carved out a space that feels both wholesome and indulgent. Known for its clean ingredients and proudly local roots, the brand has become a pantry staple for health-conscious South Africans looking for products that don’t compromise on flavour.

In a land not so far away, where colours turn their brightiest and laughter lasts a little longerer, a brand-new story is unfolding. From the creators of The Luxurious Marble Circus, comes an extraordinary new chapter. The Magical Marble Family Fest, a first-of-its-kind, wonder-filled world made for families to play, explore and rediscover joy, together.

Mall of Africa continues to lead the way with an impressive line-up of new store openings and relocations, that have brought fresh energy, global style and proudly South African brands into the centre. From fashion heavyweights to emerging local concepts, the latest arrivals reflect the mall’s ongoing focus on curated retail experiences that bring the world to Africa.

Join us at the Prestige Heartfelt Arena for South Africa’s biggest Baby & Toddler Market—now in a larger, more central venue that’s safe, accessible, and designed for a relaxed, enjoyable shopping experience with more space and greater variety.

From 9 – 12 April 2026, the historic Company’s Garden becomes the canvas for LUMENOCITY – The Art of Light, Africa’s first large-scale festival dedicated entirely to light-based art, immersive storytelling, and creative technology.
Set beneath ancient trees and surrounded by some of the city’s most iconic landmarks, the four-night festival invites visitors to explore numerous light installations and interactive artworks of various proportions – all created by South African artists. As dusk falls, glowing pathways, projection-mapped facades, illuminated gardens, and sound-responsive artworks turn the country’s oldest park into a dreamlike nocturnal playground.

In an era dominated by mass production and fleeting trends, craftsmanship is the new luxury, and Sofacompany is redefining what it means to invest in furniture. With a heritage rooted in Danish design principles, the brand brings globally informed, locally available furniture that leads a space rather than fills it.

Cape Town may be synonymous with mountains and coastlines but tucked between it all lies Century City – a polished urban enclave where everything you need is just steps away. Here, Century City’s Urban Square Hotel becomes more than just a place to stay; it’s a gateway to a seamless, city-style experience, with an ocean view.

Your bathroom is more than a functional space – it’s a personal sanctuary where you start and end each day. The good news? You don’t need a major renovation to transform it into a calm, welcoming retreat. With smart paint choices and budget-friendly updates, you can create a space that supports relaxation and self-care.

Perfectly positioned on 1 Church Road in Sea Point, just steps from the promenade, The Cole rises above the Atlantic Seaboard with a quiet confidence. As the newest five-star boutique hotel from the Kove Collection, it carries the group’s signature sensibility: creatively curated, design-led, and unmistakably Cape Town.
But staying at The Cole revealed something far more layered than just a magnificently beautiful hotel.

There is something quietly powerful about revisiting a ballet that has stood the test of time. And, when that revival coincides with a milestone anniversary, the emotion feels even more layered. This year, Joburg Ballet returned to Giselle at the Joburg Theatre, marking not only the company’s 25th birthday, but also 25 years since its first production of this romantic classic.
From the opening moments, the performance felt assured – clean, crisp and meticulously polished whilst still casting a hauntingly ghostly spell across the audience.

The global conversation around smoking is changing. For decades, public health messaging has focused on the dangers of combustible cigarettes – and with good reason. It is the burning of tobacco that produces the thousands of chemicals responsible for smoking-related disease. But as regulation tightens and science evolves, a new discussion has entered the wellness space: can nicotine exist outside of combustion?
This question sits at the heart of Philip Morris International’s (PMI) transformation, and the rise of products like ZYN. They are paving the way towards a smoke-free future where smokers are now offered healthier alternatives to cigarettes, understanding that most do not want to quit nicotine altogether.

The idea for Love on Film didn’t come from a boardroom or a brief — it came from a desire to remember more than what lives fleetingly on a phone screen. In a world where thousands of images disappear into endless camera rolls, Love on Film was created as a reminder to slow down, be present, and preserve the moments that matter most.
When Ubuntu Film Co sent over their Accidentally Iconic Bundle, the intention wasn’t to review a product — it was to experience a different way of capturing life. What followed was a journey that took the camera from a bleisure trip in Cape Town to the cobbled streets of Italy in Winter, and ultimately shaped Love on Film into something deeply personal and universally relatable – rooted in real moments, real places, and real love.

For many South Africa, daily life means sitting behind a screen, juggling targets, managing people, responding to complaints, or simply running hard to keep everything moving. And then the weekend arrives, or a rare free weekday afternoon opens up, and suddenly all we want is space, perspective and beauty.
Few places offer that kind of reset quite like the Cape Winelands. Vineyards stretching into the distance, thoughtfully made wines, good food and an atmosphere that encourages you to slow down.
The following Winelands destinations produce exceptional experiences, offering views that do half the work of unwinding for you.

From business flights to romantic escapes and solo adventures, LIFT strikes an appealing balance between value, comfort, and customer-first policies. It’s not just a way to get from A to B — it’s a travel experience that feels distinctly South African and deliberately refreshing in a crowded domestic market.

This past Saturday, 31 January 2026, Cape Town’s Hollywoodbets Kenilworth Racecourse once again became the backdrop for one of the country’s most anticipated cultural spectacles. The World Sports Betting Cape Town Met, this year, presented “Symphony of Style”. Ultimately, the event combined world-class horseracing, avant-garde fashion, music, and cultural flair. In conclusion, the Cape Town Met 2026 was far more than a race day, but a formative expression of style and social life in the Mother City.

If you’re wondering what to get your girl for Valentine’s Day, here are some red-hot ideas to set things in motion. Spoil that special woman in your life by gifting them something that speaks more than a thousand words ever could. Valentine’s Day is about expressing your love, and these gifts scream “you are my soulmate”.

Duck Apparel has never been about dressing for one version of life. It’s all about movement — the kind that happens between Pilates classes and coffee runs, school drop-offs and spontaneous plans, long travel days and even longer to-do lists. With the launch of Duck’s new Lightweight Motion Jacket and two striking new Soft-Motion Legging colours, the brand continues to blur the line between performance wear and everyday style.

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about the girls, but the guys too. Spoil your special man with one (or two) of these gifts that say “I love you”.

There’s a quiet shift happening in Johannesburg’s northern suburbs. It feels less like another retail launch and more like a cultural awakening. And at the centre of it is The Canna Collective at Oaklands, a premium destination that elevates what it means to belong to a modern Cannabis Members Club.

In a media landscape often dominated by breaking news, bad news and burnout, the Only Good Things book series has quietly carved out a space for optimism. What began as a single good-news platform has, over the years, evolved into a trilogy that captures South Africa at its most human.
