DESTINATIONS

Grahamstown was established as a military outpost in 1812 and due to its turbulent past it has more forts than the rest of the whole country combined. When the British settlers arrived in 1820 the town had less than 13 houses. Grahamstown is sculptured around beautiful Georgian and military-style buildings reaped with history.

Every year in July, Grahamstown holds a festival known as the ‘Grahamstown National Arts Festival’. This is a cultural event offering over 500 shows with both international and local talent!
