<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;">The stage is set, players booked and the artists are ready </span>as they lurch headlong into another delicious instalment of Mieliepop. <span style="color: black;">It is now the fourth annual event. Original South African legends and the hottest of new acts converge from the 2<sup>nd</sup> to the 5<sup>th</sup> of October in Eclectic Mielie-Land. This is way more than just a mere musical festival and it will swiftly become clear why their regular Mieliepoppers return back time and again.</span><u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 13.45pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">“Those in the know are all too aware that Mieliepop is far from just setting up camp and watching bands. Without argument set in one of the most beautiful festival venues in South Africa, festival goers appreciate our fine blend of serenity, creative mayhem and quirky surprises.  Jaw-droppingly good talent continues to ensure the grandeur from eras past, present and beyond.” - Organizers<u></u><u></u></span></span></i></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 13.45pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you think Mieliepop; think of an escapist world where you can celebrate and simply have outlandish fun! <i>“We are noted for our provision of quality at many levels, squeaky clean and well-serviced festival infrastructure (hot showers/flush toilets)” Organizers</i>. Camp hassle free on lush lawns adjacent to a crystal clear lake (fishing and swimming allowed), Rock ‘n’ Rolling green hills and magical caves delicately decorated with Highveld lilies.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; line-height: 13.45pt; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Explore the beautiful farm and wildlife, catch a fish, find hidden land art or float your pimped lilo on the lake while you make friends with the resident otters. Be romantic and declare your love at their Chapel (while Elvis makes it all official) or possibly hitch a free ride on the “Yellow Dub-Marine” with the live onboard reggae band. <span style="color: black;">Join in or kick back then make your way to the Marshmallow Pit, bang your drum and show off your didgeridoo skills around the festival-long bonfire.</span><u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;">Visitors may also</span> trek off into the woods where their new Electronica Stage addition this year will host fresh and pioneering DJ's. More late night foot tapping options; Cocktail Pool Bar and Disco Cave will keep the classic party happening until the early hours of the morning.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The festi-food district, a long-time Mieliepop favourite, continues to raise the bar / push the boundaries with a truly unique mix of the usual favorites, healthy, meaty and fusion food. Enjoy your feast either seated on scattered tables around the venue or claim your picnic spot with your blanky.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You can spree at the market. Go shop for something that you can brag about or absolutely don’t need. All stalls only sell quality, original and trendy accessories, clothing, costumes, toys, official merchandise and art.<u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;">The Mieliepop Way: <b><i>“</i></b><i>Labeled as South Africa’s most laid back and eclectic Rock, Reggae and Blues boutique festival experience, where you can comfortably lose/find yourself, relax and dance with like-minded people! Keeping it real and loaded with variety has always been at the heart of the Mieliepop core. Nature (including farm owner, Andre Van Rooyen) did a swell job by providing us with the most surreal and breathtaking venue ever. We simply added a few ingredients and shook it all up. The result was spectacular; blissful festies of all ages danced together while appreciating and supporting real and original SA music.” Coenraad Nel, Festival Organizer</i></span><u></u><u></u></span></div>
