Rocking the Daisies is a 3-day electronic, multi-genre, music festival at Cloof Wine Estate in Cloof Wine Estate, South Africa. The October 2026 edition runs 2–4 Oct 2026.

Expect stages split between electronic, multi-genre and music.

Everything happens at Cloof Wine Estate, in Cloof Wine Estate. Cloof Wine Estate is the base for the trip: it is where the affordable beds, the late trains and the after-parties are, and where prices climb fastest as the dates approach.

Rocking the Daisies keeps the same calendar slot each year: October 2026 for this edition, opening on a Friday and closing on a Sunday. It falls in autumn, after the summer circuit closes, when flights and rooms come back down in price. That slot matters for the budget — flights and rooms in Cloof Wine Estate are priced for the festival weekend, not the week around it, so shifting your arrival by a day often saves more than any ticket tier does.

  • Location: Cloof Wine Estate, Darling, South Africa
  • Scheduled for: October 2-4, 2026 (event canceled)
  • Includes glamping options for attendees.
  • 20 years of festival history.

Planning the trip, step by step

  1. 1Book the ticket first: tiers at Rocking the Daisies are sold in waves and the cheapest wave is gone long before the line-up is complete.
  2. 2Then price the travel from Paris — Cinderella compares train, bus, car and flight for the same dates, and the cheapest option is not always the obvious one.
  3. 3Reserve 4 nights rather than 3: the last night of a festival almost always ends after the last train home.
  4. 4Follow Rocking the Daisies on Cinderella to be emailed when a ticket price drops or a new tier opens.
