Pack your picnic blankets and head off to Laborie in Paarl on Friday, 4th December, for a fabulous Christmas Carols Showcase. With delicious food and wine and live entertainment for the whole family, it promises to be a great way to kick off the festive season.
Theatre director, actor and writer Norman McFarlane, is choreographing and directing this year’s event, which promises to be a very special evening with two great choirs – the Winelands Chamber Choir and La Rochelle High School Choir, who will sing Christmas carols.
Dave Rawlings will play background music and live band, Slow Jack will keep visitors entertained while Father Christmas will be on hand to entertain the little ones and spoil them with sweets.
We are putting a big focus on kiddies this year. A golden circle will be set up in front of the Manor House for the kids, and there will be face painters, and a balloon artist. There will also be a mini petting zoo with cupid the goat, silky chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs. – Tania Joubert,
There will be food stalls with delicious bites from Laborie’s Harvest Restaurant, including boerewors rolls, and pancakes for those with the sweeter tooth, as well as coffee and soft drinks.
Picnic hampers can be pre booked. Kiddies baskets are priced at R85 per picnic basket (1 person) and adult baskets are R285 per basket (2 persons). To book these contact Noelle Pheiffer on 021 807 3093 or email info@laboriewines.co.za
Bar di Bar, the farm’s new craft brewery inspired retro themed bar, will be open, offering a quirky 1970’s feel and the best craft beers in town.
Entry tickets cost R80 for adults and R50 for children (7 to 18 years of age) and R15 for children (2 to 6 years). Sales of kiddies tickets will go to supporting the Paarl Post Christmas fund. Ticket-holders will each receive a glow stick and a song sheet on arrival.
Only 57km from Cape Town, Laborie produces some of the best Methode Cap Classique sparkling wines, an array of award-winning wines, an estate brandy and a delicious fortified Pinotage dessert wine.
