Considering the upcoming event, City of Cape Town’s Member of the Mayoral Committee for Economic Growth – Alderman James Vos said that the first Steenberg Festival was arranged last year in 2023, which was a wonderful event and received a huge success for the community.
Vos added that this time too, he along with his team is bringing back that fun and joy to the City of Cape Town. Alike last year, the inaugural Steenberg Festival, the upcoming market of December 2024 will also take place just in time for visitors to have fun as pre-Christmas outing with friends, family and close ones.
According to Alderman James Vos, the Steenberg Festival is one of the several City-supported events that offer a platform for small businesses to sell their goods and services and increase their profile.
He explained that most of the vendors who had a stall at 2023 event expressed their desire that they would like to participate again and Vos encourage them and other vendors to take advantage of this opportunity.
Last year, the Area Economic Development officials within the Economic Growth Directorate worked closely wit the Ward Councillor – Marita Peterson to make the festival a great success. The festival provided a wonderful chance to the local vendors to raise their profile and promote their products.
James Vos stated further that the one-on-one meeting with the customers is a fantastic way to build relationships and networks.
He also marked that the festival aims to provide visitors a platform to break away from their daily routine and take some time to relax and enjoy the moment as well as interact with their loved ones.
