POETRY IN MCGREGOR 2021- NEW DATE
Posted by McGregor Tourism McG on 04 August 2021 10:00 AM CAT
EXCITING NEWS!
POETRY IN MCGREGOR is moving to NOVEMBER from 2021 onwards. We have always wanted to hold the festival in November but chose not to due to the number of other annual events taking place in and around McGregor in November. November’s weather is perfect festival weather with warm days, little wind and no rain. With so many other annual events no longer taking place we are taking the opportunity to move the festival to November in 2021 and plan to keep the festival in the second weekend of November from 2021 onwards. The bonus this year is that it will also be a relatively safer time to hold the festival in terms of the on-going COVID-19 pandemic with more people having being vaccinated and the summer weather not being as conducive to the spread of the virus. Poetry in McGregor 2021 FRIDAY 19-SUNDAY 21 NOVEMBER 2021 will be an intimate and celebratory festival featuring over 70 poets performing in group events.
We trust that those of you who have already booked accommodation in August will be able to change your reservations to November. Please contact our office at Temenos ASAP . if you have reserved accommodation in McGregor please contact the Tourism office 023 625 1954
DINNER FOR TWO-OR-MORE
For those of you who would still like to enjoy a weekend in August in McGregor, Patricia Schonstein and Jane de Sousa will be reading the beautiful poetry of Chris Mann, Hugh Hodge, Candy Rhode and Bernard Levinson, beloved poets who passed away over these past few months. This will be a celebration evening and include a three course dinner at Tebaldi’s during which poems will be read and glasses raised.
This will take place on Saturday 28 August.
