2010 sees the fifth Uplands Festival during the last weekend of May (Friday 28 - Sunday 30 May 2010)

Following the growing success of the Festival, this year promises to be better again. Sponsors and organisers have pulled out all the stops to entertain the Lowveld in style. The von Memerty family will be back in the theatre with a brand new show, The Circle of Life, and the beer marquee will be kept lively by jazz and other musicians.

Should a South African team have done well enough to host the Super 14 final in South Africa, it will be screened in the beer and food marquees. A nail-biting rugby match will also take place between Penryn and Uplands College, alongside competitive hockey and netball. There will be a hockey Masters’ home fixture and the equestrian centre is hosting a graded event.

The craft market will have many new stalls from around the country, and the children’s entertainment area goes BIG again with giant slides, mini quad bikes, diesel trains on a track and climbing walls, to name but a few of the many attractions.

The food marquee will again be full of tantalising and exciting creations, to visit after a show or a stop-off at the Art Exhibition, which is growing to be one of the biggest in the Lowveld!
