A highlight this year is Le Marche Français, or French Corner Market, in the Town Hall, which includes a showcase of Franschhoek food and fare, as well as kiddies' activities. The sporting element features boules, the largest and longest running boules competition of its kind in South Africa, the Waiters' Race, the Franschhoek minstrel parade, fencing and the barrel-rolling contest. A farmers' market, craft market stalls, musicians, and children's activities are also included in the line up of festival celebrations. Evening events will take place at Col'Cacchios and The Station Pub, with top DJ's and live acts lined up to ensure that festivities continue well into the night.
