This weekend residents and visitors to Gauteng have an opportunity or three to get out of the house and enjoy some fine entertainment.

There’s a Garden Show in Pretoria that’s bound to get your green fingers itching, there’s The Wine Show in Johannesburg that offers connoisseurs (and the rest of us) a superb tasting and learning opportunity, and there’s plenty of art at galleries in Gauteng.

This year’s Rand Show opened its gates today and promises to be a festival of fun for kids and adults alike.

You could win double tickets to the Rand Show simply by SMSing ‘GeePee’ to 33090.

You also stand a chance to win double tickets to a unique GeePee experience at one of Gauteng’s top visitor attractions, as well as the double tickets to the Rand Show.

Usually termed “dead December” by those in the travel and tourism industry, Gauteng enjoyed more visitors, more travel and tourism spend, and more market interest late last year.

The kids are back at school, you’re back at work and 2012 is in full swing. Gauteng is raring to kick off this year’s entertainment calendar with your first dose of weekend happenings for 2012.

Are you a cyclist? A mountain biker? An average Joe who just wants to get out of the house and explore something new? If so these cycle routes are just for you.

They’re not difficult rides for the professional mountain biker, but are fairly easy trips through scenic areas of Gauteng that you can do alone, or with a group of friends.  Plus you won’t always need your own bicycle.
