A symphony of cheeses at this year's SA Cheese Festival

If you're looking for the hottest new trends in all things cheese, there is no better place to be than the SA Cheese Festival, taking place from 27 – 30 April 2012.

This foodie highlight takes cheese lovers on an unrivalled culinary journey where the remarkable assortment of artisanal cheeses, dairy and other partnering products will entice the senses. Taste the large selection of cheese in the Checkers Cheese Emporium, get up-close-and-personal at the Santam Agriculture Milk Factory exhibition and add to that some tips from food bloggers and cheese makers in the DStv Food Theatre. A stroll further down the Meander and through the Absa Mall will complete your sensory expedition.

Combine a great day out in the country with an opportunity to meet and learn from an array of exciting culinary talent. The event has settled in well at its new home, Sandringham (on the N1 halfway between Cape Town and Paarl).

Buy your ticket at a Computicket outlet or Checkers store near you (no tickets at the gates) at R110. Senior citizens pay R90 and children 13 years and younger enter absolutely free. The festival runs from 10:00 to 18:00 each day and 17:00 on the last day.For more information contact Agri-Expo on tel 021 975 4440 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
