Our amazing venue is only 1 hour and 50 mins from Cape Town at Kromrivier Camping Site, Riviersonderend
On Googlemaps search for ‘Kromrivier Farm Riviersonderend’
This year, due to a bridge closure, you need to stay on the N2 until the R406 LINDESHOF turn off, approx 2km before Riviersonderend. A picture of the road sign is attached.
Once you have turned off there, it joins up with the R406 which leads to Kromrivier Campsite farm entrance - Google Map to Kromrivier Campsite one you turn off the N2.
It is about the same journey time - just more motorway, less dirt road

No glass bottles – PLEASE respect this – there will be searches for any glass before you enter the festival and we will have to take them off you.
Personal alcohol can only be consumed in the campsites due to SA licensing laws. You won’t be able to bring alcoholic drinks or cooler boxes out of the camping areas. Pls respect this policy.
What not to bring
Bazique is a collective of people – we are all in it together – and as much as we want you to have a good time with as few restrictions as possible, there are certain things that we cannot allow due to safety and legal reasons and there will be searches to enforce this. Please don’t bring any of the following. There is a particular sensitivity to fire risk at this venue.
Glass bottles. Cookers of any description. Braais. Flares. Fireworks. Illegal drugs. Dogs, Cows, Alpacas or any other animals. ( feel free to dress up as one tho) No Drones.
Age Policy
Bazique is a NO UNDER 20’s event and this will be enforced at the gate. If you look younger than 23, please bring your ID to make your entry to the event nice and easy.
