This October, the historic town of Stellenbosch transforms into a botanical paradise for Garden Town Stellenbosch, a ten-day festival celebrating nature, art, and the opportunities they create. From 31 October to 9 November 2025, visitors are invited to explore a world of floral beauty, with a diverse program that extends far beyond the traditional garden.
Garden Town is a showcase of opportunity, not just for a beautiful day out, but for learning and community connection. The main attraction is the rare chance to step into exquisite private home gardens—a unique glimpse into the town’s horticultural heritage. This opens the door to new inspiration for your own green space.
Beyond the gardens, the festival offers a full program of events that foster opportunity. From workshops on sustainable gardening and floral art to the Stellenbosch University Botanical Garden tours, it’s a chance to learn new skills and connect with a community of fellow enthusiasts. The festival also highlights opportunities for local businesses through food and wine pairings and a vibrant market.
Garden Town Stellenbosch is a testament to the town’s commitment to preserving its natural beauty while fostering a vibrant, creative community. It’s an invitation to slow down, reconnect with nature, and find new inspiration.
