Presented by Jameson. In partnership with DStv.
Every year you say you want to go. Every year you sigh, ‘I wish I had gone’. This is the year! Rally your friends and plan a New Year’s experience of a lifetime at one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
Held in Zimbabwe’s natural heritage park in the town of Victoria Falls, the Jameson Vic Falls Carnival is a truly magical experience. Nothing quite says holiday like hot, humid weather, considerate locals and fun-loving adventurous travellers. Throw in the best New Year’s Eve Party in Africa and you’re in for the time of your life.
Now in its fourth year, here’s what Jameson and DStv have in store for you:
29 December 2015:
The famous train party: Take a 5 hour vintage steam train journey through the Victoria Falls National Park to a secret location deep in the African bush. With Sub-Saharan Africa DJ’s pumping top tunes through the classic carriages, you’ll be in full party mood when you disembark at the secret stage set up under the African skies. After selling out in record time last year, the organisers have made the exciting decision to run multiple trips to and from the secret venue, increasing the number of party-goers able to revel in this truly unique experience.
30 December 2015:
Your festival ticket will act as key while you are left free to wander through the streets of Vic Falls as the town lights up with wonderful events hosted by the local backpackers, lodges and bars. On the evening of 29th and 30th there will be parties in town at multiple venues with free entrance for festival ticket holders. Shuttles will ferry fans to and from the party venues to specific hotels and drop-off points.
31 December 2015:
It’s party time! Prepare for an unparalleled New Year’s Eve extravaganza. Over 6,000 revellers, top bands and DJ’s from all over Africa, stilt walkers, fire dancers and the best party atmosphere. The power house line-up will be announced as we move closer to the date, but this festival doesn’t solely rely on who’s playing, it’s the overall energy that completes the experience.
This year the Jameson Vic Falls Carnival will be offering an extensive array of travel and accommodation packages catering for all of your three, four and five star needs – visit www.vicfallscarnival.com for more details.
Love adventure? Try out white water rafting, upper Zambezi canoeing, an elephant back safari, an adrenaline-fuelled canopy tour, gorge swinging and adventure slides, bungee jumping or bridge swinging, helicopter flips or a plunge into Devil’s Pool.
If you prefer a more chilled experience then relax on a sunset river cruise, experience the Victoria Falls Tram and Bridge Tour or try out a special lion encounter.
Keep an eye on the Jameson Vic Falls Carnival Facebook page for competitions from Jameson and DStv as well as a variety of exciting travel packages, adventure activities, lineup and up-to-the-minute festival news.
Don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime New Year’s extravaganza.
