Cap Classique and Champagne festivals sponsored by MasterCard
10 August 2012  by Cap Classique Association
MasterCard, one of South Africa's leading brands, has confirmed its association with the Franschhoek 'Magic of Bubbles' Cap Classique and Champagne Festival® as well as the Johannesburg Cap Classique and Champagne Celebration.
Both events, regarded as highlights on the social calendar, will be sponsored by MasterCard for a minimum of two years, respectively, with the option to extend.

The Johannesburg Cap Classique and Champagne Celebration, ideally suited to Gauteng bubbly enthusiasts, will take place at the Johannesburg Country Club in Auckland Park on 18 and 19 August. The festival will offer patrons the opportunity to sip and sample the finest of bubblies without having to venture into the Winelands.

Establishing a strong following, the Franschhoek 'Magic of Bubbles' Cap Classique and Champagne Festival® will take place over the weekend of 30 November to 2 December in the picturesque Franschhoek Wine Valley. Franschhoek, situated in the heart of the South African Winelands and with its French heritage character, provides the perfect location for visitors to delight in sampling both Champagne and Cap Classique wines.

Cap Classique, Champagne and MasterCard, regarded as three premium brands, are brought together for discerning clients at the Franschhoek and Johannesburg festivals.

Cock up in Johannesburg. Kobus v d M. - 20 August 2012
I hope they do a better job of the Franschhoek event than the Johannesbug one, where they told everyone it was on in the Johannesburg Country Club, when in actual fact it was on in the Wanderers Club. Basic stuff. People turned up and were toild No you can't come in, the event is not on here - please go to Wanderers. Egg on face for sponsors.
