With the continued restrictions on the size of the events that we are allowed to host under level 3 lockdown and due to the ongoing concerns over the current 3rd wave of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in the Western Cape and the local area, – we have made the difficult decision to cancel The Silver Mountain Music Festival, scheduled for 12-15 August 2021. We made this decisions after careful consultation with our team, in consideration of the health and safety of our musicians, our audiences, our team and the local communities of Swellendam and Hessequa.
Taking into account the current regulations and data about the COVID-19 virus, we felt this was the only way to proceed during such an unprecedented global situation.
We are very disappointed that we are unable to hold this event that benefits many within our local community, but we know it’s the right decision. Despite all the challenges of 2021, we are very pleased that we were still able to host several Marimba workshops that are the heart of the festival.
We have communicated directly with ticket holders to process the necessary refunds. If you have already booked accommodation, we hope that you will support our local area and still come to the valley and enjoy the fresh air and mountain views.
We are looking forward to 2022 and hope that you will come and support this event when we are once again able to celebrate music and nature in the mountains.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause and kindly ask for your understanding.
