The African Rainbow

Welcome to the Rainbow! A vibrant, colourful melting pot of people, music, tastes and crafts.

In the daylight hours you will find; a trading area with exclusively hand made high quality craft, various workshops from Mayan astrology to kiddies recycling, face painting, drumming and mellow music to just sit and chill with.

After sunset; join us for a journey into sound, smell, taste and colour. Enjoy delicious food or some home baked cakes with a warm cup of chai or gluhwein while the DJ takes you on a journey of sounds from all over the world. Ever changing images are projected onto the walls of our multi hued cave and delicious smells waft through the space. Mexican style wood ovens warm the atmosphere and fire dancers light up the night. Drumming and spontaneous jamming blends into the music and if you want to dance then this is where you need to be!
