The FBI today announced the launch of the all new BEACH SPORT SPECTACULAR festival, a four (4) day event which kicks off on Saturday 27th March at Muizenberg Pavilion. In keeping with its theme – this, the first of four such events planned for 2010, is to be hosted “on the beach“while an eclectic array of exciting activities and events are planned to coincide over the four day period.“We’re planning to showcase Muizenberg in a very unique way” says Fun Ball Initiative Media Agent Rico Minaar, a founding member of the Muizenberg Community Festival.
The event aims to promote art & culture, prosperity, inclusiveness, cultural diversity, tolerance and unity; by including strong components of Social Awareness and Social Responsibility – including an amazing entertainment line-up.
Furthermore, the event aims at raising both funds and awareness, for the ongoing development of a Multipurpose Sporting Venue currently underway on Muizenberg Beach. The project known as the FUN BALL INITIATIVE – which takes place on weekends and all school holidays – has hosted more than 2000 Beach Soccer participants to date.
Most of the festivities will be held on the beach area located between the estuary and the blue flag beach area of the Muizenberg Pavilion.
Special events within the festival, includes an EARTH HOUR Celebration which will include a BEACH SOCCER final match being played in the dark with a neon football, while the boundary of the play zone is lit up by candles.
