The Rand Show is back for another year, bringing vibrant energy, entertainment, and family fun that Joburgers have come to love over the decades. Traditionally held over the Easter holidays, the show attracts scores of visitors from across the country who flock to Johannesburg for several days of non-stop excitement.
This year, organisers have taken things up a notch with the introduction of a brand-new tech and gaming arena, a major win for those who love action. The arena will feature interactive experiences such as hackathons, where teams collaborate to solve real-world problems under time pressure, as well as robotics and a massive LEGO pit packed with millions of bricks which will offer visitors the chance to build, design, and unleash their inner architect.
Since its inception in 1894, the Rand Show has been offering unmatched entertainment. From race demonstrations to exhibitions showcasing fashion, jewellery, crafts, and innovative products, there is something for everyone.
Visitors can enjoy a variety of foods South Africans love, including unique food stalls and home-made offerings you wouldn't typically find at shopping centres.
The family-friendly show features dedicated kids’ zones filled with games, rides, and interactive activities.
Live music performances and entertainment further add to the festive atmosphere, making the show not just an exhibition but a chance to experience stars performing live.
Each year, the show hosts around 400 exhibitors and attracts at least 80,000 visitors, many of whom return annually as part of their Easter tradition.
So, whether you are looking for family fun, shopping, entertainment, food, or a glimpse into future technology, the Rand Show promises an unforgettable outing this Easter season.
