They’re doing it again! After a really really successful first-ever Really Really Free Market in Cape Town there’ll be another one on Sunday 13 December at Zandvlei in Muizenberg from 1pm to 4pm.

If you were at the first event, you already know how it works. The concept is really simple: if you have anything to share - things that you no longer use and that are clogging up your garage, or skills or anything else you can think of - then bring them along to the REALLY REALLY FREE MARKET (Where everything is Free!)

The only restriction: everything has to be 100% free. No swapping, no bartering and no money involved...
At the previous Really Really Free Market people brought lemonade, a delicious curry, tuna burgers, crunchies, clothes, books, toys and all sorts of other items, all to be given away as gifts to whoever wanted them.

But you don’t have to bring physical objects. If you’re in a band or play the tuba, why not hold an impromptu mini-concert? If you do Tarot readings or can teach someone to knit, then why not do that? Organise a treasure hunt for the kids or perform a puppet theatre play. The only limitation is your own creativity and if you’re inspired to do something ... just do it!

Where? Next to Zandvlei, on the large grassy bit on the east side of the vlei where the kite festival normally happens. There are detailed directions below and some maps in the photo section.

This event is open to anyone - so bring your kids and grandparents - and it’s FREE (duh!). It's organised by the participants themselves, including you. There won't be any "official stalls" and things (unfortunately there are no toilet facilities or electrical supplies, either). It will simply be whatever all of us make of it, so bring some blankets and join us for a relaxed afternoon.

PLEASE FORWARD TO ANYONE YOU THINK MIGHT BE INTERESTED.
