Book your accommodation for The Loeries now

The Grand Daddy Hotel - your home from home.

Agencies are encouraged to take up accommodation in this area which offers everything from backpackers to five star hotels. Registration for the Festival Weekend will be taking place at the Grand Daddy Hotel in Long Street and around the clock transport will be supplied from the venue to various places within the village.

As Thursday September 24 is a public holiday, attendees are encouraged to get a head start on the Festival Weekend. This year, breaking the tradition, the ADS24 and SABC awards ceremonies will be held on the Friday and Saturday evenings. The SABC Battle of the Bands and the Chairman's Party will be on Thursday evening - as well as a welcome VIP shindig thrown by the Mayor of Cape Town. After-parties on Friday and Saturday will be in Long Street and include a fantastic line-up of DJs to make you party till the sun rises. And for the indomitable, the festivity continues during the day throughout the Festival Weekend.
