For the die-hard Creekers, there will be a show at Die
Burger Bar Stage on Thursday night 4 February. You can claim the best
camping spot and enjoy an extra night at Up the Creek with performances
from Dave Ferguson, The Black Cat Bones, Akkedis and No One’s Arc. Tickets
for this package are limited, pre bookings essential.
In 2010 there will be more food vendors to get you through
the days in style, including coffee maestros that can deliver your
caffeine to your tent-step, more stalls and more bars throughout the
festival. Once again, there will be an area with committed staff to look
after the kiddies, as well as dedicated life-guards to look after the
young at heart at the river.
This year there will be a special bus service to Up the
Creek and back. The bus will depart from Cape Town and arrive at Up the
Creek on the Friday afternoon at about 16h30. It will leave Up the Creek
again on the Sunday afternoon at 15h00. Return transport from Cape Town to
Swellendam costs R240-00 per person. (Festival ticket not included.)
