The Routes of Sound
Join us for a winter music festival series of cosy, acoustic music journeys at The Routes of Sound at Spier. Enjoy performances by a diverse range of outstanding local musicians – some well-known, and others under the radar – in cosy, intimate settings on the farm. Three winter weekends, featuring a total of over 30 musicians. Each weekend has a completely different line-up.
Audiences will embark on a journey of sonic exploration as they sample three diverse musical acts, each paired with one of Spier’s award-winning Creative Block wines, in some of Spier’s most atmospheric spaces. The evening culminates in a rousing concert. The concept of The Routes of Sound plays on the words routes and roots: the paths to musical discovery you'll follow, and the joy of enjoying music in its most elemental form: unplugged and up-close.
We suggest booking an early meal at Veld Restaurant at the Spier Hotel to settle in beforehand. Dress warmly and bring comfortable walking shoes for strolling between venues.
Upcoming dates: 31 July 2026 and 1, 21 and 22 August 2026
