September/October -Magoebaskloof/Haenertsburg Spring Festival -
21 - 29 September 2012

Every year the azaleas and crab apples in the village gardens and at Cheerio burst forth in wonderfully colourful blosoms of pinks, purples and oranges.  A sight never to tire of. During the end to the beginning of September the Spring Festival takes place at the Magoebaskloof Hotel and Haenertsburg Village.
Cheerio Gardens and Sequoia Gardens will be at their most beautiful as the flowering cheery and crabapple trees burst into bloom and azaleas create a riot of colour.    Plans include two wonderful craft markets with their interesting goodies and fascinating demonstrations and the very popular orchid exhibition with beautiful and rare orchids, cymbidiums and bonsai.
