SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees Confirms 2026 Dates.

The SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees is thrilled to announce that the 2026 festival will once again take place at its exciting new home — Sentraal-Suid Koöperasie (SSK) in Kirkwood, formerly known as The Co-op / Die Koöperasie.

“After the success of the 2025 SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees at our new venue, we are extremely excited to confirm that SSK will once again host the festival in 2026,” says festival director Jenni Honsbein.

Located in the heart of Kirkwood, the venue proved to be a perfect fit for the Wildsfees, offering ample space, accessibility, and a welcoming atmosphere for festivalgoers.

“We are extremely grateful to SSK, whose headquarters are based in Swellendam, for making their Kirkwood grounds available to us once again,” Honsbein adds. “Festivalgoers who have already booked accommodation in town will be pleased to know that, just like before, the venue is within walking distance — making it easy and convenient to enjoy the full Wildsfees experience.”

“As a cooperative, SSK places great value on being actively involved in the communities where we operate. Our members are the foundation of our organisation, and supporting the areas in which they live and work is an essential part of who we are. We are proud to once again be part of the SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees and look forward to the positive impact the 2026 festival will have in showcasing our vibrant agricultural region to visitors,” says Francois Swanepoel, CEO at SSK.

The 23rd SPAR Kirkwood Wildsfees will take place from Friday, June 26 to Sunday, June 28, 2026.
