How to celebrate Heritage Day in the North West

Heritage Day looks different everywhere. It can be about smoke from the fire, a road trip playlist, or just kids running around the garden. If you’re wondering how to celebrate Heritage Day, we’ve put together a few simple ideas to point you in the right direction.

Make lunch the main event this Heritage Day

At the braai, lunch runs on the braaimaster’s time. One more turn, a bit more basting, one more “not ready yet.” Meanwhile, the cousins are circling the braai stand to “have a taste”. Hungry? Head to Mzansi’s favourite family restaurant for Famous Grills that don’t make you wait around the fire.

Take a road trip this Heritage Day

Heritage Day in the North West could mean a stop at the Mafikeng Museum or a day at Sun City. Road trips here always sound the same: snacks gone before halfway, cousins singing too loud, and someone swearing you’ve taken the wrong turn.

Luckily, Wimpy at Engen is never far. Pull in for the meal you’re in the mood for, and earn points with the Rewards App for your next visit.

Heritage Day always comes with stories. Uncles tell the same jokes, aunts start with “back in the day,” and everyone laughs anyway. Give the kids a turn too with our digital library: local storybooks in 11 languages made for them.
