Pinot Noir & Fire: National Braai Day Celebration
Join us on
National Braai Day for a heartfelt celebration of South African flavours, music, and wine in the Paul Clüver Amphitheatre.
Pinot Noir & Fire brings together the timeless pairing of Pinot Noir and braai in a relaxed, open-air setting surrounded by Elgin’s natural beauty.
Endorsed by
Jan Braai, the official champion of National Braai Day, this special gathering will feature one of his signature recipes as part of the fire-cooked menu—adding even more heritage flavour to the experience.

Guests will enjoy a generous, live-fire spread served from braai stations across the amphitheatre lawns, including:
- Cape Malay lamb sosaties
- Chutney-basted chicken thighs
- Whole apricot-glazed snoek
- Aged sirloin with chimichurri
Each dish will be paired with thoughtful seasonal sides such as creamy samp, harissa mielies, and kale & apple salad.
The Brood Tafel
A beautifully curated table will welcome guests with:
- Roosterkoek
- Biltong spread
- Fresh fruit
- Other local favourites
Desserts
Roaming dessert trays will offer nostalgic treats like:
- Mini melktert
- Peppermint crisp tart
- Koeksisters
