February 6th, 2008 by The Backpackers Team

Splashy Fen 2008Calling all Splashy fans… We’re giving away two double tickets for Splashy Fen 2008!

Each year South Africa’s longest-running music festival attracts thousands of fun-loving folks to a farm near Underberg in the Southern Drakensberg (Kwa-Zulu Natal) for what has become the ‘ultimate outdoor experience’.

This year’s festival runs over the Easter weekend from March 20 to 24 and will once again offer a line-up of over 70 of the country’s hottest artists, including the likes of blues maestro, Dan Patlansky; Cape Town ska outfit, The Rudimentals; acclaimed acoustic guitarist, Guy Buttery; and the internationally successful folk singer/songwriter, Miriam Backhouse.

Other attractions include a range of fun activities for the whole family, as well as arts and crafts, an abundance of different food and drink outlets, much-improved camping facilities and a tent hotel.

Individual tickets would normally cost you between ZAR 300 and ZAR 400 (±30 – 40 Euro) but if you enter our Splashy Fen 2008 Giveaway, you might just win two tickets of your very own (worth 80 Euro!).

All you need to do to enter is answer the following questions correctly:

  1. In what year was Splashy Fen established? (hint)
