Following the many ‘tastes’ that South Africa has to offer in forms of markets and festivals is a hobby that couple Felane and Nqobile Mahlangu enjoy doing. One evening while driving back home to Pretoria from Johannesburg, the pair realized they often have to drive out of their home City to enjoy a food and lifestyle festival. What started as a small gathering with friends and family catered for by 5 food stalls in 2015, later turned into a full-fledged Food Festival in the Capital City, bringing together people of various cultures, races and ages.

Food and drinks is something that brings people together, whether it is for a braai at home, trying out a new burger spot or simply hang with your friends. It is for this reason that 4 years ago the Tshwane Food Festival kicked off with a vision to bring people together to the Capital City to enjoy good food, company and a great ambience.

Today the Festival encompasses various elements, which makes it the perfect day out for everyone, promotes the City as a tourist destination and gives opportunities to SMMEs whilst creating a lasting experience for those that attend.
