Manutsa Mountain Festival with Frikkie Kotze - Cape Vulture Lodge & Nature Reserve

Loading player...
Llewell sits down with Frikkie Kotze from Cape Vulture Lodge & Nature Reserve to talk about the upcoming Manutsa Mountain Festival 2026 — a one-of-a-kind celebration of music, culture, and connection in the heart of nature.
Taking place 24–26 April 2026, this intimate 2-day festival blends live music, immersive art, and creative expression with the raw beauty of the landscape. Think open-air stages, camping under the stars, local food vendors, and a community of artists, explorers, and free thinkers coming together. With only 300 tickets available per day, it’s all about authentic experiences — slowing down, tuning in, and connecting with the rhythm of the land and each other.
Hosted at the Cape Vulture Lodge, the event also highlights conservation, helping protect over 728 breeding pairs of endangered Cape Vultures. 🦅
📻 Don’t miss this inspiring conversation with Frikkie — and discover a festival where music meets meaning.
