Paarl will once again play host to The One World Festival of Healing at the Paarl Arboretum on 23 and 24 September.
The festival, which is in its second year, attempts to deliver a space where local and international diversity can be represented and celebrated.
Festivalgoers can look forward to the representation of 15 countries with food from around the world and live entertainment from artists Judith Sephuma, Karen Zoid, Jack Parow, PJ Powers and Alistair Izobell, to name a few. There will also be live poetry, holistic practices such as Yoga, Meditation and Taichi introductory classes and much more. A group of Australian Aborigines will also perform special peace rituals over the two days. The festival appeals to both young and old with fun rides for the little ones and wine tasting for the adults. Children remain the VIPs of the festival, as under 18s are granted free access.
The festival, in association with the Institute for the Healing of Memories, The Community Chest Drakenstein Municipality and Nedbank, is now in its second year.
The Arboretum is the perfect space for this international endeavour as in this special 2,8\u2009km space, 2\u2009600 species of trees and shrubs from all over the world are arranged as per continent of origin. And, since spring has sprung \u2013 they will be in full bloom and a sight to behold.
Tickets for the event are available via Computicket and Shoprite\/Checkers outlets with festival times between 09:00 and 19:00 on both Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 September. Tickets cost R80 for a day pass, R150 for a weekend pass and R200 for the golden circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
