If you’ve been following this blog (or my twitter or facebook accounts), you’d know that the 17th April marks year number 5 that I’ve been on this little adventure of mine.
In addition, you’d also know that I never let an opportunity for a party pass me by, and what better reason for some serious celebrations than a birthday.
The 17th April also marks the start of the Otterlake Easter Festival 2014. Since Otterlake takes place from 17 to 21 April, I’ll be celebrating my birthday over the course of 5 days. 5 days… turning 5… if that isn’t fate, then I don’t know what is.

As you can see from the line-up, there’s more than enough reason to be there for the whole weekend (tickets available on the Otterlake Festival website for just R350). However, if you choose to do so, you can get yourself a day-pass to the festivities for just R100.
Bring & Braai Every Day
If you’re too drunk, hungover or just plain lazy, head on over to my braai stand every day with your meat at around 12h00. I’ll have a couple extra braais going where you can either braai and chill out with us, or I’ll even braai your lunch for you.
Easter BraaiBroodjies with Crystal Park
Crystal Park are taking to the stage on Friday @ 17h30, and because it also happens to be their birthday in April, we’ve teamed up to offer you some snacks during their show as well. Never tasted a bacon & cheese hot cross bun braaibroodjie? Neither have I, so make sure you get to the main stage at 17h30 on Friday and let me know what you think.
a top secret VIP party
OK, so it’s not THAT top secret. Inbox me on any of my channels and I’ll send you a link to the invite 😉
Looking for discounted tickets?
If it happens to be your birthday during April, then pop me a message on facebook, twitter or via my contact page with your full names & ID number and I’ll put your name onto a list and you’ll get 50% off your ticket when you buy it at the gate on Thursday.
Looking for FREE tickets?
You’re in luck again… I happen to have a set of double tickets to give away. How do you lay your hands on them? Easy… Comment on this post and/or send me a tweet and/or post on my facebook wall letting me know who your favourite band is at Otterlake this year (remember to tag @BraaiBoy and @Otterlake_Fest) and I’ll pick a random winner tomorrow (16 April at 12h00).
Got any questions? Please get in touch, or give me a shout on facebook or twitter… otherwise I’ll see you at the party!
