The Kearsney Easter Rugby Festival, brought to you by Standard Bank, is back, with some of the country’s top rugby schools once again providing a spectacle of running rugby at one of South Africa’s most prestigious and famous schoolboy rugby festivals.

Online tickets are available at a cost of R50 per day. Children under six years of age get in for free.
