As usual, the festival's sporting calendar is jam-packed with favourites like the forest marathon. The media launch has taken place in the area. Margaretha Van Tonder manages one of the most popular restaurants in Knysna, which specialises in oysters.

“There's the cultivated oyster which is the pacific farmed grown oyster, that is the one that was originally farmed here and now in Port Elizabeth and Saldhanah Bay. Both will be on offer and there's variations of them. The soups can be ordered cooked, raw, dressed, those are the two main oysters you will find here. And obviously in all their various sizes, from look large sizes, down to cocktail sizes,” Van Tonder said.
