Now in its third year, Rock The River SA was created out of the need for an alternative New Year's Eve event where fans could go relax and enjoy South African music in an intimate, safe and healthy environment. With Cape Town being widely regarded as the party destination of choice for many South Africans come year's end, the options for non-mainstream professionally run events are far and few between; Rock The River SA has corrected this imbalance in an ever expanding market.
Rock The River SA continues to provide an exciting alternative to conventional New Year's Eve parties and this year's festival will take place from December 31 to January 2 at the Cape Town Ostrich Ranch, located 20 minutes from Cape Town along the N7, towards the West Coast. The organisers will once again bring along a brand new state-of-the-art sound and lighting rig to provide three epic stages for more than 100 acts expected to attend. This includes the Main Stage, the D&B and Dubstep stage and a third stage for Metal/Goth/Hard Rock and Punk. At present, the confirmed acts for this year's event include Fokofpolisiekar, Hog Hoggidy Hog, Half Price, Boombox Troopers, Reburn, Stone Collar, The Great Apes, Junkyard Lipstick, CY.STR, Thought Police, Witness To Wolves, Dutch Phobia, Cannon, Smugg Juggler, Jackal & Wolf, My Flawless Ending, Gritt (PE), Impalement Theory, a DJ line-up provided by RubaDub and Basscore, as well as the 420 Comedy Troop. (More acts to be confirmed. Line-up is subject to change.)
