A mesmerising virtual experience awaits, when Stellenbosch on Stage presents a truly unique University of Stellenbosch Alumni Concert, featuring the likes of Laurika Rauch, Stuart Taylor, Sunday Kelechi, Jan Braai and the renowned Stellenbosch University Choir on Heritage Day, 24 September at 19h00.
Tickets for this inimitable show, broadcast live to your device wherever you are, are now available from Computicket and each comes with a complimentary R100 Support Stellenbosch SnapScan voucher, redeemable at participating restaurants and shops in this historic town.
Viewers can look forward to a selection of hits and all-round entertainment that have made these South African icons top of their game. Legendary Laurika Rauch, will be joined talented cellist Sunday Kelechi, whilst comedian Stuart Taylor will have everyone in stitches with his witty humour.
The Stellenbosch University Choir conducted by André van der Merwe will also join the screen and to proudly mark what is famous colloquially as National Braai Day, Jan Braai will tune in with his tongs to share some tips of his favourite pastime. This exclusive event will be presented in collaboration with Stellenbosch University’s Development & Alumni Relations.
Stellenbosch on Stage was established as a campaign of solidarity and unity in July and this novel initiative now also provides recovery support to the City of Oak’s battered economy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Stellenbosch is a town that stands together. We’ve seen that more than ever during this pandemic,” says Visit Stellenbosch CEO Jeanneret Momberg. “Now, we take that solidarity a step further by supporting local business through an innovative Support Stellenbosch rewards campaign that will have the dual goal of stimulating our tourism economy and incentivising our guests to love where they live and experience local entertainment.”
“First of its kind in South Africa, Support Stellenbosch is a truly unique and exciting campaign, supported by our partners Stellenbosch Municipality, Stellenbosch University and Wesgro. We can be proud that our town is showing such leadership and innovation,” says Jeanneret.
Tickets for this online concert cost R130 and are available at Computicket. The concert will remain available for seven days.
