Durban's first ever Good Food & Wine Show will have something for everyone when the doors open at 10:00 on Thursday 14 August at the Durban Exhibition Centre. From fanatical foodies, to style gurus; from gourmets and gourmands, to wine connoisseurs, sports lovers and even something for the Kids. The food, wine and lifestyle extravaganza of the year, will appeal to the whole family.
The Kids Zone sponsored by the Daily News, is sure to be a firm favourite with the younger members of the family. A wide range of fun-oriented kids activities have been organised from 09:00-22:00 each day.

All this and loads of prizes and give-aways in the Kids Zone.
