The entertainment will include appearances by Juan Boucher (April 3), Snotkop (April 4), Spoegwolf (April 6) while Die Heuwels Fantasties and Francois van Coke will close the festival in style on April 7.

Performing artist Juan Boucher shared his excitement in being a part of the celebrations. ‘Rugby is a big part of the South African culture as is music and I’m super excited to be part of a rugby Festival in the lovely town of Paarl in the heart of schoolboy rugby’.
Wimpie van der Sandt CEO of Bok Radio, official entertainment partners for the festival, said “Bok Radio is proud to be associated with the World Schools Festival and look forward to doing what we do best, entertaining the Western Cape community with the very best in local entertainment.
