Music, nature and the chance to experience country life:
The Silver Mountain Music Festival is a glorious weekend of fun, entertainment and culture. 
​
​The festival brings some of South Africa’s most prominent musicians to this secretive – yet lush – valley, in the Overberg region in the Western Cape. It is organised by well-known musician and conductor, Richard Cock, and a host of partners (including the Grootvadersbosch Conservancy). 

 And this year, the line-up includes wonderful artists such as:

​Pianist Sulayman Human
Soprano Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha
The Charl du Plessis Trio
Richard Cock
Baritone Tim Moloi
Soprano Lauren Dasappa
And many more.
​

Aside from the music, you can experience
the nature and farm life
​of Grootvadersbosch:

Experience life on a dairy farm
Meet the little creatures of the forest
Get close to a wild Cape Buffalo
Journey into the past
And learn about stoneground flour
 
THIS IS THE THIRD ANNUAL SILVER MOUNTAIN MUSIC FESTIVAL. 

What is so special about this area? 


The festival is inspired by the silvery glow of the Langeberg Mountains. The natural beauty of the area is coupled with a rich cultural heritage and genuine rural hospitality.

​We also showcase local cuisine and access to adventures, such as hiking and mountain biking.
 
"The weekend is a perfect long weekend winter break – and this event should not be missed."
​

Some wine
​with your music? 

Here’s the finishing touch to a perfect weekend -
​Sijnn Wines is partnering with the festival. ​
​That means you can enjoy their wonderful wines at the various events throughout the festival. Look out for their flagship Sijnn Red 2012, paired with Thursday’s Classical Concert and Saturday’s Richard Cock & Friends Concert. Or their 2008 vintage, with the Charl du Plessis Trio on Friday. Intense, warming, complex wines – to warm you up on a winter’s evening.
