ABOUT
The Knysna Timber Festival will be celebrating its 8th annual showcase of local excellence across the value chain, in the town where the country’s timber industry first took root.
- NEW! Timber Sports
The 2020 Festival will showcase skills developed by local harvesting teams by the inclusion of ‘Timber Sports’ – a high entertainment value feature show encompassing axemanship exhibitions, chainsaw competitions, physical endurance and strength demonstrations.
- NEW! Knysna Timber Magazine
A new addition to the festival will be the advertising-supported Knysna Timber Magazine. The publication will be locally published and contain a mix of industry insights, contacts and other resources, as well as style, art and wood-related literature aimed at a wider 'lifestyle' market.
- NEW! Knysna Timber Museum
An insight into Knysna's Timber heritage!
- NEW! Fund-a-Forest Tree Planting Festival
We will be selling indigenous saplings that will be planted, with public participation, on the Sunday at Timber Village – creating a fun family activity whilst addressing ecological concerns at the same time. See the ticket link for more information.
