Knysna Speed Festival Details
The Knysna Speed Festival story began in 2009 with the first running of the Simola Hillclimb. From humble beginnings the event grew rapidly between 2010 and 2012 quickly becoming one of the most popular events on the South African motorsport scene. The 2014 event, sponsored by Jaguar South Africa for the first time, provided compelling evidence that the event had come of age and five years later it is the undisputed premier local motorsport event in the country having enjoyed a decade of growth and success.From kicking off in 2009 with a single event, the festival grew rapidly and by 2012 it hosted a Kart Grand Prix, Motor Show, Slot Car Challenge, Soap Box Derby, 4×4 Challenge, 4×4 Forest Drives, a Golf Day and the Hillclimb.The concept was ambitious and had never been done before in South Africa, but it was simply too much for our small team of volunteers to undertake, and the financial costs were too great. Having taken stock after the 2012 festival we decided to go back to our roots to focus on the Hillclimb and to put all our effort into creating the best event in SA.The current structure gives the event a unique flavour and provides entertainment for all ages. The Knysna Speed Festival's vision is to host and organise the premier motorsport event in the country that is recognised as a premier event internationally. Our goal is to attract an ever-increasing number of visitors to the beautiful town of Knysna to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere of entertainment, motorsport, motoring activities and the natural beauty of the region. The festival not only boosts economic activity in the town, but also benefits charities in the area.
