Events in Worcester

Worcester sits in the Breede River valley, ringed by mountains and surrounded by vineyards, orchards and packhouses. Farm weddings are popular on wine and fruit farms around Rawsonville, Robertson and Wolseley, often in barns, orchards and gardens where tents add shelter and a dance floor. Packhouse and cooperative companies host harvest events and year-end functions, and schools, churches and community halls in Zwelethemba and Avian Park hold matric dances, funerals and family celebrations. Summers are very hot and dry, and winter nights are cold with rain, so shade and heaters are common requests. Planners and hire companies work from Worcester and larger suppliers come from Paarl and Cape Town.
