Champagne Classics

Champagne Classics is a three-night weekend of sublime music in the beautiful Drakensberg.

During the midday and evening concerts, our 27-piece Orchestra will be conducted by Maestro Dr Richard Cock, and will perform works by some of the greatest Classical composers, including the likes of Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn and others. 

The event is held in late February at the Champagne Sports Resort in Central Drakensberg, and what a lovely time of year it is.  Enjoy spectacular views of the mountains, well-appointed accommodation, and a vast range of leisure amenties, including their gorgeous golf-course.

All meals are served at the hotel restaurant, a help-yourself buffet with an impressive array of delicious food.  Vegan, vegetarian and other special diets are no problem – please confirm your preferences during the booking process.
