1 December 2019
What’s happening.
First on the list are the numerous Christmas markets to rifle through. Since their revamp, now mostly catering to Millenials, Christmas markets have taken on a new look. ‘Tis the season and the first to kick off the festivities is Lagoon Park, with its own spin on a Christmas market taking place on Sunday, 1 December from 09h00 till 14h00 with trinkets, seasonal delicacies, maybe pink flamingos for good measure.
DECEMBER. Hello, my old friend. We’ve barely survived this adulting thing but somehow we find ourselves here, at the end of another year and this calls for celebration. Repeat after me: Every. Day. In. December. Calls. For. Celebration. Technically, we’re still deskbound. However, science says time does not exist in space therefore work is a figment of November’s past. So call up your friends, get the cars loaded, stock up on the essentials, because we’re all temporarily relocating to the coast! Here is the lowdown on what you can get up to all December.
6 December 2019 We don’t know why anyone would want to put themselves through this arduous challenge, but if you’re into bikes, sand everywhere imaginable and the unyielding heat of the Namibian sun, then look no further, because it’s back: the Nedbank Desert Dash 2019. This endurance biking adventure from Windhoek to the coast is never one to miss. Sure to attract national and international cyclists, the 24-hour race across the Namib Desert kicks off on Friday, 6 December. You only live once, go ahead. It’s December!
13 December 2019 All the cool kids will be at the Social Club’s new home, the Rooftop at the Swakopmund Dome, on Friday, 13 December. Catch your favourite DJ’s sets from 14h00. Good vibes are guaranteed when music is the main attraction.
