The 10th Oyster, Wine & Food Festival takes place right here at Gauteng's favourite spot – Montecasino! The event is an established firm favourite crowned as Gauteng's largest Oyster Festival and it promises to deliver 65 000 succulent oysters flown in from Knysna, 300 different wines from 32 wines estates, gallons of beer aplenty and gourmet food.

So you'll get to sip on the diverse and interesting wines, beer and bubbly on offer paired with fresh succulent oysters. Try your oysters dressed up with Ol'Faithful … Lemon, Black Pepper and Tabasco, A l'il Tangy … Onion Vinaigrette, or a Sushi Oyster … Wasabi, Soy Sauce and Pickled Ginger.

Fresh oysters, along with grilled prawns will be available for all famished Festival-goers. Medium oysters (available at all Oyster Factories) will be sold for R15 each and the popular jumbo oysters (available at the Champagne and Oyster Deck) for R30 each. Gourmands are also invited to experiment with pairing and matching the delicious oceanic flavour of their oysters with beers, wines or the classic favourite, a crisp bubbly.

Oysters are sold at R15 (medium) to R30 (jumbo).
