Bay Harbour Market in Hout Bay is turning December into one long, sun-soaked jam session — and the December Gig Guide proves it.
With everything from soulful serenades to high-energy holiday performances, the market’s legendary Sound Stage is set to light up the festive season with live music all month long.
Visitors can expect the full Bay Harbour Market experience: eats, beats, arts, and crafts, all wrapped up in that unmistakably vibrant seaside atmosphere. With extended summer hours — Wednesdays to Sundays — there’s even more time to wander, shop, snack, sip, and settle in for a soundtrack that feels like pure summer.
