The South African Cheese Festival is an annual culinary event held on the scenic Sandringham Farm, located between Stellenbosch and Paarl in Cape Town’s Cape Winelands. Launched in 2002 by Agri-Expo, the festival has grown into one of the country's most popular food events, attracting visitors from around the country and internationally. Originally focused on cheese, the festival has since expanded its offerings to showcase a wide variety of local foods and beverages, including artisanal breads, wines, craft beers, and a variety of gourmet items, all celebrating South African flavors.
With cooking demonstrations, tasting sessions, and food-pairing workshops, the festival offers both casual attendees and culinary enthusiasts a hands-on experience of South African cuisine. The venue layout includes different zones, such as the Cheese Emporium, the Gourmet Lane for prepared dishes, and the Cape Made Pavilion, where local producers showcase their unique products.
