It’s almost time for Joburg’s most iconic event and this year promises to be an all-round show-stopper.
This year the Rand Show will run from April 19-28 at the Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec. This is South Africa’s largest purpose-built exhibition, conference, convention and event venue.
Normal ticket prices are R80 for children under 17 and R150 per adult.
This year’s show includes the introduction of a host of family orientated and never before seen attractions. Gaming, Cosplay and dance are just some of the new additions to the entertainment menu. Gaming fans will be given a real treat at the new Gaming Entertainment Pavilion with a Fortnite Gaming Tournament where R100 000 is up for grabs.
Show favourites are back, such as the South African Garden and Home Pavilion, military displays featuring supersonic jets, attack helicopters, armoury and synchronised aerial displays, as well as the fun fair.
For petrol heads there is the World of Motoring, showcasing spinning and drifting, driving course, and the IASCA World Record Sound Competition.
The chance to win big is made even greater with a host of prizes up for grabs, ranging from a home make-over from EasyLife Kitchens, which includes a new kitchen and cabinetry in each room. It comes with R150 000 furniture from Home Italia and a Mlily Manchester United bed.
You can also be off to the Chelsea Flower Show in London and travel to Kirstenbosch or Lesotho.
All these activities have also been super-charged with the addition of a world class Fashion, Beauty and Fitness Expo which will be attended by some of the world’s biggest names in fitness, such as Hattie Boydle from Australia, Tom Coleman from the UK, AJ Ellison from the USA and our very own Jaco de Bruyn.
This expo will also host events such as SA’s Fitness Runway Model competition and public workouts where visitors can themselves take part in fitness sessions.
Cape Town’s famous Zip Zap Circus will entertain with breath-taking performances from April 26 to April 28.
Or if cooking or talent shows are your thing, be sure to catch the finals of SA’s brand new Jacaranda Clash of Ages and the Joburg’s Talent competition.
