Afterpaartie

Every festival day has that moment when the last stage light fades and the crowd heads home — but you, you’re nowhere near ready for bed. We’ve got you: you don’t have to wander aimlessly through quiet streets or spend hours searching for that elusive late-night venue. Woordfees 2025 has the perfect hangout for the night owls. Join us every night at 22:00 for the Afterpaartie – a late-night event where the music keeps playing long after the formal programme has ended. Some of South Africa’s most beloved blues, rock and jazz artists will light up the stage. Musicians are welcome to bring their instruments and maybe even join the artists of the evening on stage. It’s not just a hangout – it’s where the festival becomes family.
