THE Rand Show will kick-off in great style, with a hall-to-hall big bash.
The show will open on Friday, March 25, and will end on Sunday, April 3.
In its 123 years, the Rand Show is South Africa’s biggest consumer expo and definitely Joburg’s biggest day out for the Easter Holidays.
Offering 10 days of BIG family fun, it is crammed with lifestyle exhibits, shopping and exclusive deals, great food and a top-class line-up of entertainment, chosen to delight every member of the family.
On board for 2016 is the SANDF, with its explosive arena displays and exhibits. The all-new Man Cave presents hours of sporting and motoring entertainment, while the Science and Technology Lab goes big with 5 000sq m of fun, including live science shows and two robotics championships.
There are cooking, baking, craft and fashion and beauty workshops and demonstrations, providing lots to learn and do for young and old.
The strongmen are back for another competitive round of SA’s Strongest Man, and the hugely popular Extreme Bodies competition will show off some of the best physiques in town.
There are also animal shows in the Animal Kingdom, a wide variety of performers on the Spice of Life Stage, Mr and Miss Rand Show 2016, giant bubble fun for kids, and much more
And the best news is that all of this and more is included in the cost of the entrance ticket.
A must-see event for lovers of all things equine, cowboy and country, Go Country is a whip-cracking SA Cowboys country extravaganza, packed with feats of horsemanship, mounted archery, cowboy songs and games that will delight the whole family.
