The day, on 27 April, marks the first post-apartheid democratic elections held in the country, in April 1994, which led to its first black president, Nelson Mandela. I guess kinda like our Fourth of July.
Events in Joburg on Freedom Day include the Back to the City Hip-Hop Festival, an extravaganza concert by singer Sibongile Khumalo at the Lyric Theatre, as well as a fun walk for those who would like to celebrate in a healthy way. About 14,000 young people are expected to head to Newtown for Back to the City, a music and art gathering with a sizzling lineup. There are marathons, parades and many other festivities planned all over Joburg, its suburbs and nearby Pretoria. Can't wait until Worker's Day on May 1st.
Braai anyone?
