Kirstenbosch
National Botanical Garden is a world famous garden which
is home to indigenous flora to the Cape. The immaculately
kept gardens and modern visitor centre are an incredible
asset to the City of Cape Town.
Allow yourself plenty time to walk around the gardens and relax in this natural,
tranquil setting. The garden is great for picnics and people of all ages enjoy
what the garden has to offer.
Summer and Spring are full of life and this holds true for the Botanical gardens.
From December to March, musical sunset concerts are held on the lawns.
Craft
markets are also held at the Stone Cottages on the last Sunday of every month
(except June, July & August). |

Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concerts 2009/2010:
Garden visitors who arrive early on Sundays and wish to attend the
concert later in the day should purchase a concert ticket which will

Concert tickets will be limited, but garden entry tickets will still
be available if the concert venue is sold out. This will enable visitors
to picnic on the lawns outside of the cordoned-off concert area.
Tickets to all Old Mutual Summer Sunset Concerts are on sale
at on www.webtickets.co.za or can be purchased the Tuesday preceding each concert from the Kirstenbosch
Visitors’ Centre Ticket Kiosk. On Sundays concert
tickets will be available at all the entrances.
Telephonic bookings (021 761 2866) can also be made from the Tuesday onwards before each concert. An administration fee of
R10 per ticket is applicable for telephonic bookings.
You are welcome to linger after the concert but please leave the
