WHAT’S HAPPENING

2020 What’s happening.

The Tuesday of the months has come to an end... Also known as the month where you actually start the whole “new year, new me” business, as January was just a free trial month. March has seriously arrived already (say: “what?! “) and it is jam-packed with events all over Namibia you don’t want to miss out on.

21 March

We hope you have your tekkies and Fitbits ready, because it’s almost time to really get that heart rate going! And no, we’re not talking about all the poses you strike for the perfect #ThatFitLife Instagram-worthy shot, we’re talking real serious marathon skills here. If you think you can jog for 42.2 km or 21.1 km straight without your tongue hanging out, sign up for the Sanlam Coastal Marathon 2020 in Swakopmund. Tickets are available from EventsToday.

P.S. – there’s also a 10 km run and 5 km fun run for the upand-coming marathon experts.

21-22 March

Whilst in a way it is still summer, but unfortunately no longer the festive season (sigh...), you may as well pretend it still is and get your adrenaline pumpin’ with the Swakopmund Open Beach Volleyball event on 21 – 22 March. There might not be the December summer vibes anymore, but you could still end the volleyball weekend madness with a dip in the ocean, drink a beer or two and watch the sunset with your mates.

25 March

Have you ever just stopped and wondered in the midst of admiring that California Roll before putting it in your mouth, how they got every single little component so flawless? Well... Let’s be real, sushi in general is just absolute perfection, but when everything fits into one perfect bite – that is art! And lucky for us, Silver Spoon Hospitality Academy in Windhoek will be hosting Sushi Classes on 25 March, and even though you might not master the art of sushi making from the get-go, at least you can eat all the flops. Visit their website to book your spot! (www.silverspoon.com.na)

27 March

From classic Harley Davidsons to speedy Yamahas, the President’s Run is any motorbike enthusiast’s dream and will surely leave them drooling. On 27 March bikers from all over the country will show off their two-wheelers or even three-wheeler trikes at Hotel De Duine in Henties Bay.

27 March - 04 April

It feels like just yesterday that we were all partying and celebrating all the festivities, and guess what? We get to let our hair down once more with WIKA – the Windhoek Karneval – for more than a week. We’re pretty sure WIKA must be the biggest annual festival Namibians look forward to and with good reason, who would not want to learn more about this German event through all the activities they have to offer. Ice cold drinks, good food, dancing, fun German traditions... What more could you ask for? Buy your tickets on Webtickets.

We told you that March is overflowing with events and festivities! It’s like December 2.0 and if we may give you some advice: Get out of your house and make the best of these last summer days, because before you know it, the chilly nights start creeping in and then it’s just too late to leave your bed and hot chocolate behind. Leave the Netflix and Chill for hibernation mode!
