Full Moon Picnic at the Afrikaanse Taalmonument are very popular with local residents and tourists alike, who especially enjoy the sunsets and incredible night scenes.   Visitors can come anytime between 17:00 and 22:00, and have a look at the monument, which is an exceptional, symbol-rich sculpture. Visitors are also encouraged to explore, and there are outdoor games and playgrounds for children.   Guests are welcome to bring their own picnic baskets or pre-order one from the Oppi Berg Mobile Café on 060 382 9938 (R250 per couple, R450 per family of four).

They are available from Computicket or at the gate, and no booking is required.   Annual permits are available at R120 for individuals or R220 per family (currently offered at a 20%-discount), which includes access to all Full Moon Picnics.
