Just Chillin’ Sessions ‘Cycle in the City’
2015-10-30
Just Chillin’ Sessions, Capital Collective and Freedom Park are hosting the first ‘Cycle in the City’ as part of Just Chillin and Market at the Sheds first birthday celebrations.
The events will be hosted on the 31st of October at Prinschurch Building in Pretoria, CBD where the Just Chillin’ Sessions started in 2014. “Cycle In The City” will start at one of South Africa’s most iconic heritage sites, Freedom Park, with a free tour for all the cyclists that will be taking part in the ride. The ride aims to promote non-motorised transport in Tshwane and showcase the beautiful buildings and spaces in the inner city during transport month. The Freedom Ride is open to the public. The ride starts at Freedom Park and is an easy 5 km downhill ride to Prinschurch building on Sisulu Street, where Just Chillin’ Sessions will be held. There will be four stops along the way at some of the City’s other historic and cultural sites. The ride is free of charge including refreshments and free bicycle rentals for the first 50 participants who want to take part but do not have bicycles.
The second part of the day will be Just Chillin’ Sessions birthday celebration at the Prinschurch Building on 216 Sisulu Street. The venue overlooks some of Pretoria’s most iconic buildings including the Reserve Bank, State Theatre and The Union Buildings. Since its inception in October 2014 it has become a pop-up social market moving around the beautiful buildings and spaces in the inner city.
Just Chillin’ is focused on Art, Food, Design and Music with a local flavour, aimed at showcasing the talents and initiatives of people residing in Tshwane. It has its own unique feel and offering, unique to the Capital. The Event is a platform for young emerging artists to gain exposure by showcasing cultural works, including fashion and live musical performances from up and coming artists. On the day there will be performances from the likes of: Honey B, Jab a Jaw, Beathoven, Berlin Boys and Kabomo. Patrons are treated to delicious gourmet dishes by carefully selected caterers from culinary schools around Tshwane.
The relaxed, hassle free vibe at Just Chillin’ Sessions is the biggest draw card – a true celebration of the people of Pretoria. There will be a free wine tasting from 13:00 until 15:00, with giveaways during the day as part of the birthday celebrations. This event is in partnership with the City of Tshwane.
