DStv customers who stay connected throughout September and already attending the festival, will have the opportunity to be invited into the DStv Foodies Lounge that has limited seats on offer for each day of the festival.
Additionally, during festival weekend, DStv will be giving the first 500 festival goers a DStv festival bag to enjoy the day’s festivities.
