21 Oct Kick Off Our Opening Weekend: Dewald Dippenaar Live on Stage
There is nothing better than amazing live music and a great atmosphere to connect people. That is why we are excited to announce that Dewald Dippenaar will be performing live at the opening weekend of our farm on 31st October 2025! Embrace local Afrikaans music, the beauty of the Klein Karoo, and the authentic vibe of Route 62 by booking your stay with us. We’re ready to welcome you for an unforgettable time.
Great love and passion have gone into creating a farm stay close to Barrydale that travellers will truly enjoy. If you’re looking for a family-friendly setting that embraces outdoor adventures and is authentically South African, you are in the right place. We also deeply appreciate the music of our country, and plan to host many more shows with live artists from around SA.

Our Opening Weekend Shows
We want our opening weekend to be a massive celebration for all attending! We’ve invited iconic Afrikaans musician Dewald Dippenaar to take the spotlight for a live performance on the first day of our farm opening. Expect to be greatly entertained by some of his most popular hits, including “Plaasdorp,” “Wys Jou Muis,” and “Bel die Polisie!”. His music reaches an emotional depth while remaining upbeat and fun, for feel-good energy that gets everyone up and dancing.
Over the past decade, Dewald Dipenaar has established a name for himself as a remarkable Afrikaans singer and songwriter. His signature country and rock style sets him apart, and he also plays the harmonica and guitar beautifully. Since his first original CD, “October Sky,” he has continued to share his talents and passion with fans across South Africa. Dewald is the perfect fit for our first live performance at Absolutely Wild Farm, setting the pace for an amazing opening weekend.
We will also have Juan Boucher live at Absolutely Wild on the 1st November 2025. His dynamic stage presence, authentic sound, and amazing energy perfectly capture the spirit of our farm, which is lively, and full of heart. While our glamping tents and cottages are fully booked for the opening weekend, we can still accept accommodation bookings for private and shared camping spots. Bring the whole family and join in on the fun!
