Ultra UTC Style

The well-loved Up the Creek festival once again takes to the Breede waters in Swellendam this weekend. If heading that way, be sure to check out the five things not to miss at this year's fest. However, if you're planning on strutting your stuff at the J&B Met this Saturday, better take note of the fashion experts' advice when it comes to picking the perfect on-trend outfit.

In other top story news I interview DJ Shaun Duvet to get the behind the scenes scoop on the upcoming Ultra South Africa.

We've got tickets to The Color Run in Stellenbosch and next week's Kirstenbosch concert featuring the Cape Town Folk 'n Acoustic Music Festival up for grabs. Enter here!

If Mumford and Son'ing we'll check you there!
