As one of this country’s most memorable events on the annual entertainment calendar, The Rand Show returns in just two weeks - with an exhilarating offering sure to please family and friends. Running from 06 to 10 April 2023, SA’s largest consumer exhibition takes place at The Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec.
This will be the most fun you can have for under R 100 this coming long Easter weekend.
Huge Crowd Pleasers and Outdoor Fun
The Rand Show is famous for its outdoor displays, and this year, we are maximising the outdoor experience. Visitors can experience helicopter flips, drifting, go-karting, Hamley's trains, Marching bands, as well as the SANDF display. For the little ones, there is an animal farm, balloon giveaways and an inflatables village. For all our thrill seekers, the Theme park is back in action with new rides to get your adrenaline pumping.
A new addition to this year’s event is a Dog Showcase – backed by The South African Dog Agility Association (SADAA). Dog Agility is one of the fastest growing canine sports globally and is a fantastic spectator sport. This promises to big a massive crowd pleaser for visitors. Visitors can expect to see dogs and their handlers participating in four disciplines – flyball; agility; jumping and IPO (training, obedience, and protection). This is sure to wow the crowds.
All Day Entertainment
While some may not consider food and drink as entertainment, at this event, it is. From the beer gardens to speciality snacks and food, there is an excellent excuse to break your diet.
The kids will love the dedicated Kids Zone, on stage entertainment, magic shows, ocean buddies, SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer. The brand new Easter Wonderland promises hours of free fun with baking and making, face painting, egg painting, hopscotch and so much more! Keep an eye out for the Beacon easter bunny and our free to use Rand Show soft play village, the ideal area for mom to rest. We have also loaded the kids zone with multiple rides, from light-up bikes to mini forklifts and so much more.
Young adults can look forward to spin booths for their social media posts and free music concerts around the show at no extra cost. Some top SA musicians will be performing, including the likes of Dr Victor, Mango Groove, Uncle Waffles, Kelly Khumalo and MXO.
Families will enjoy the Classic Car Show, wrestling, the Dog Show, Cake Boss, Cooking display, Motorbike display and toy run and the various marching bands performing throughout the show.
