Jeremy Loops
Two days before Christmas, with the act whose records already sound like this place — loops, harmonica, and a band big enough to fill a field. If one session this summer sells out first, our money is on this one.

The artist
Jeremy Loops
Modern folk · Kommetjie
Jeremy Hewitt grew up surfing in Kommetjie and did not pick up a guitar until he was twenty-one, as a way of surviving a finance degree. He finished the degree, spent two years working on yachts in the Mediterranean, came home and started busking at Cape Town markets. Within two years the one-man-band loop sets — guitar, ukulele, harmonica, beatboxing and voice, stacked live through a pedal — had made him a headliner.
Four albums since: Trading Change, Critical as Water, Heard You Got Love with over 300 million streams, and Feathers and Stone in 2025. Stages shared with Twenty One Pilots, Milky Chance and Rebelution; collaborations with Ed Sheeran and Ladysmith Black Mambazo; an MTV Africa Music Award; and in 2025, the acoustic stage at Glastonbury.
He played 23 December 2025 and comes back to the same date. Of everyone on this bill, his records already sound the most like an afternoon exactly like this one.
How theafternoon runs.
15:00
Gates open
Arrive. Find your spot on the lawn. Something to eat, something cold, no hurry.
17:00
Opening act
Two hours in, the afternoon finds its rhythm. Shadows get longer. So do the conversations.
18:00
Main act
The sun drops. The music rises. This is the hour people come back for.
Before dark
Home
The last song lands while there is still light in the sky. Drive home in it.
Before you come
- Gates open at 15:00 and the first act plays at 17:00. Those two hours are not dead time — they are the part people forget to plan for and then remember afterwards. Arrive early, eat something, pick your spot.
- It varies by act. Albert Frost and Dan Patlansky on 20 December is R300 for adults and R200 for children aged 5 to 16. Under-fives come in free at every session. Prices for the rest of the season are published as each one goes on sale.
- The ticketing partner changes with the show — Spoegwolf on 16 December is on iTickets, Watershed on 21 December is on Quicket. Every session page links straight to the right one, so start there rather than searching.
- Yes — bring a blanket or a fold-out chair, that is exactly how the lawn works. Food and drink are the exception: no outside food or beverages come through the gate. Local vendors and two fully serviced bars are on site, and they are genuinely good.
- Yes. Sessions run in daylight on open lawn, and families make up a large part of the crowd. Children under five come in free.
- Yes — group tickets are available. Message the estate on WhatsApp and they will sort it out with you directly.
