Annual Reconciliation Day Celebration in Bela Bela

Day of Reconciliation, also called Day of the Vow, Day of the Covenant, or Dingane’s Day, public holiday observed in South Africa on 16th December. The holiday originally commemorated the victory of the Voortrekkers (Southern Africans of Dutch, German, or Huguenot descent who made the Great Trek) over the Zulus at the Battle of Blood River in 1838. The day gained additional significance in 1961, when the military wing of the African National Congress, Umkhonto we Sizwe (“Spear of the Nation”), chose the date to begin an armed conflict against the ruling government’s policy of apartheid. After the first democratically elected government was established in South Africa in 1994, the holiday was officially renamed the Day of Reconciliation. The holiday is now meant to foster a sense of national unity and racial harmony.

What better way to further foster this sense of national unity and racial harmony, 17 years into our democracy, than a fun-filled day complemented by a pot-filled mixture of music dishers ranging from house to kwaito and hip hop, for music lovers who convey expensive ears.
