The well-established Outdoor and Adventure Expo – held from Friday, 14 August to Sunday, 16 August, just west of Broederstroom and near Hartbeespoort Dam – is about to return to B’sorah, promising more of the same, as well as a new leisure section featuring destinations and adventures away from city life.
This event, which made its debut in 2023, is a dedicated outdoor lifestyle show for the whole family – dogs included. B’sorah is a stunningly beautiful venue situated on a cattle and game farm featuring hiking and cycling trails, and is centrally located – near Hartbeespoort Dam and less than an hour’s drive from Pretoria, Johannesburg, the West Rand, and even Rustenburg – and the route involves no toll fees.
The expo boasts a unique layout where caravans, trailers, off-road campers, and overland vehicles are grouped together, so visitors do not have to walk around searching for things to see. All the 4x4s, utility vehicles, and 4×4 equipment are clustered together, with a 4×4 demonstration track located right next to the vehicle displays.
It is certainly not a flea market, nor is it a music festival. It is even less a hodgepodge of unrelated products – this expo is a dedicated outdoor lifestyle event.
Food stalls and displays where you can purchase anything for your outdoor adventures and compare similar products – such as tents, camping gear, etcetera – are located in a separate area. Camping equipment, mountain bikes, braai tools, hiking supplies, clothing, tents, fridges and the like are also grouped together; furthermore, this year the Outdoor and Adventure Expo is introducing a new leisure section called “Destinations and Adventures”.
Apart from 4×4’ing and camping, South Africa is rugby crazy, and a beer garden with a big-screen TV showing the Bulls versus the All Blacks is part of the Saturday fun.
The site offers ample and outstanding ablution facilities.
Beer benches are set up under the trees, because – after all – we are out in nature.
The expo is for the whole family, young and old – and dogs on leashes – featuring a children’s play area and activities for teenagers, such as F1 simulator games.
4×4 owners can tackle the 4×4 obstacle course in their own vehicles. You can join us for camping for the weekend and also drive the 4×4 and SUV routes in a convoy.
Tickets are available via TicketPro (https://shop.ticketpro.co.za/seller/outdoor-adventure-expo-fyev) or at the gate.
