Sip, Savour, and Celebrate: Irene Village Mall’s Seafood & Wine Fest is Back for Woman’s Day 2025

From lobster donuts to sushi platters, this free-entry Centurion festival is cooking up something magical for your long weekend.
Woman’s Day weekend is about to get a serious flavour upgrade. On 9 and 10 August 2025, Irene Village Mall in Centurion is inviting Joburgers, foodies, and families to indulge in a vibrant Seafood and Wine Fest that’s completely free to enter.
This is not your average market. Expect lobster donuts, crispy calamari, gourmet sushi, and bubbly on tap, all wrapped up in an atmosphere buzzing with live music and celebration.
A Celebration for the Senses
Timed to coincide with South Africa’s Woman’s Day, the festival is all about connection, good food, good drinks, and great company. Visitors can explore an open-air pop-up food court or grab a table at one of the mall’s well-loved sit-down restaurants. Either way, you’ll be spoiled for choice.
Confirmed foodie favourites include sushi platters, prawn baskets, deep-fried calamari, and inventive bites like the now-viral lobster donut. And yes, the wine, champagne, and cocktails will be flowing.
Local Love and Early Hype
The festival is already making waves online, with Pretoria and Centurion locals tagging friends across TikTok and Instagram. One user wrote, “I don’t know what a lobster donut is, but I know I want five.”
And that’s the energy. Expect laughter, Insta-worthy food, and a lively crowd soaking up the spirit of the day.
