Heritage Day gets a proper braai-and-picnic treatment at Hazendal Wine Estate, where guests can gather on the lawns on 24 September for a celebration of South African food, family and one of the country’s favourite traditions.
The Heritage Day Braai Picnic brings together a packed picnic basket and live-fire cooking, creating a spread that combines local favourites with dishes straight from the braai.
There is plenty to get stuck into, including local cheeses, charcuterie, garden-inspired salads and a selection of South African-inspired braai favourites.
- The live-fire menu brings some particularly local character to proceedings, with Monkeygland-marinated beef sosaties, apricot and rooibos-glazed chicken and smoked bacon and cherry “Looies”. Then there is the Vleiswinkel Boerewors Bar, serving three regional takes on the South African classic: Heritage Wors, Kaapse Wors and Karoo Wors.
With the picnic spread set out on the lawns, guests can also enjoy lawn games, while children have space to play. It all comes together as a distinctly South African way to spend Heritage Day, with the food doing much of the talking.
The Heritage Day Braai Picnic costs R450 per adult and R250 per child. The event takes place on Thursday, 24 September 2026 from 12:00 at Hazendal Wine Estate. Book your spots now!
