So, about a week after venturing to Worcester for the Cape Town edition of RAMFest 2011 I made my way to Riversands Farms in Fourways (just North of Johannesburg). Me, @SimoneFourie7 @BaasDeBeer and @missbronni arrived at the venue at about 10 AM.
I must say that it was a lot easier finding parking than it was last year at RAMFest 2010 Jhb. Unlike the Cape Town edition, RAMFest Johannesburg (now in its 2nd year) is only a 1 day festival.
Here’s my 2 cents on RAMFest 2011 Johannesburg
In all RAMFest 2011 Johannesburg was way better organized than RAMFest 2010 Johannesburg. There were plenty of bars (an improvement on the 2 hour queues that plagued the JHB edition last year). There were plenty of clean portapottis and a wide range of food stalls.
I guess there might have been +/- 10,000 people at this year’s festival (about the same amount as last year). The Johannesburg festival might have been a 1 day festival, but it still proved that SA music is alive and well and there are plenty of people in Johannesburg that love it.
During the course of the festival I also bumped into @LiamLynchPhoto @Liny_Kruger @JannieKotze @mj_healy @XavierLoubser @RoelienvdW @Ninokie @SniperMime @ronitae @RAMFest @elismaroets @stevoza @JWGoosen @JohnStoked @Awhelady and @donmulto.
It was nice seeing all of them at the festival. I’d like to congratulate and thank RAMFest, Hilltop Live and everyone involved in organizing RAMFest 2011 Johannesburg for a great festival. Things can only get bigger from here on.
