Get ready, Nelson Mandela Bay! The beloved Splash Festival is making a triumphant return to Kings Beach from April 18th to 21st, promising four days of music, flavours, fun, and family-friendly flair over the Easter weekend.

Brought to you by the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality and proudly supported by SPAR Eastern Cape, this year’s festival is set to turn the beachfront into a celebration of everything that makes our city special — our people, our creativity, our coastline, and our culture.
What to Expect at Splash 2025:
Live Music Across Four Stages
Prepare for serious star power! Sun-El Musician will light up the Saturday night stage, while Mango Groove brings iconic vibes on Sunday. With over 40 performance slots, expect a weekend bursting with local talent and unforgettable sounds.
SPAR WE’RE FOR FLAVOURS Food Tent
Calling all foodies! Celebrity chefs Pete Goffe-Woode and Justine Drake will be cooking up a storm, with mouth-watering demos and flavourful inspiration for your own kitchen adventures.
Beach Sports at the GALAXY BINGO Arena
Think five-a-side soccer, beach volleyball, and a whole lot of competitive fun in the sun — all while soaking up the energy of a crowd that loves a good game.
Family Fun That Goes the Distance
The little ones are in for a treat, with the FUN4U Fun Fair, the much-loved SPAR Easter Egg Hunt, and a whole lineup of kids’ activities that keep the whole fam entertained.
Comedy & Market Vibes
Laugh it out with Stuart Taylor and browse local craft markets, food trucks, and artisanal stalls. Whether you’re shopping, sipping, or just strolling, there’s something magical around every corner.

Early risers, don’t miss the Secret Sunrise Beach Party on Saturday morning — a soul-filling dance celebration to welcome the day, Splash-style.
“Splash Festival is about celebrating everything that makes Nelson Mandela Bay special — its people, its talent, and its coastal charm,” say event organisers. Beyond the fun, Splash Festival continues to play a vital role in boosting local tourism and shining a spotlight on small businesses in our city.
