These include distilleries like Ginologist, Unit 43, Black Horse, Monks, and Lengana. When asked what’s new at this year’s festival, Mastenbroek said that there will be a ‘Sip & Paint’ lounge where guests can unleash their artistic flair onto canvas while enjoying their favourite gin cocktails.
The entertainment line-up includes the likes of Holly Rey, the winner of Masked Singer SA, accompanied by DJ Neps and TK Tequila, promising a night of non-stop music and dancing.
