The Berlin November Traditional Horse Racing is more than just an event. It is the celebration of yearly successes in the promotion of traditional horse racing as a sports tourism and heritage product.

Recognised as South Africa’s premier traditional horse racing experience, Berlin November has become an event not to be missed. Think- glamorous & stylish but at the same time relaxed & laid-back, it is summer’s race meeting.

In 2014, the Eastern Cape Gambling Board, partnered with the Berlin November with the intention of promoting its Responsible Gambling Strategy premised on prevention, protection and rehabilitation initiatives throughout the industry. The Berlin November platform and responsible gambling awareness was based on a public health approach which views problem gambling as a complex issue requiring multiple solutions.

To deliver a coherent message the organisers of the Berlin November have over the years ensured that a whole-of-government and industry is in concert in promoting responsible gambling issues.

Over 30 000 people enjoy the event in a variety of stylish corporate marquees, private marquees, carpark style marquees and relaxed general viewing areas.

The Berlin November has through multiple media platforms and a captive audience of 30 000 been declared a signature event of the province by the Eastern Cape Tourism Agency (ECPTA).
The three day event includes;
• Golf Day
• Music Festival
• 12 thrilling horse races with some of the province’s best jockeys,
• Mr & Miss Berlin November contest
• Fashion Shows,
• Business Village with food courts and children’s play facilities and much, more...

Entertain clients, reward staff or gather groups of friends & colleagues together. There are hospitality and ticket options to suit everyone. Berlin November sells out every year after all it is the summer’s most glamorous party.

Introducing Mr & Miss Berlin November 2022

Mr & Miss Berlin November is a platform to empower young girls and boys by building confidence and leadership skills with those winning candidates becoming role models in the communities they come from.

Participating in this kind of pageant is an effort for them to confirm their own beauty. At the same time, that can help for them to fulfil their advocacies in helping the needy, whilst it also serves as an entertainment.It also aims at empowering the contestants to contribute meaningfully to society.

The beauty pageant goes through an elimination process which produces the TOP 10 contestants who are then workshopped through several initiatives to cultivate positive personal skills and to battle it out on event day. Its build up components feature a pool of local beauty, talent and fashion. Key to the project is the development of a better boy child and girl child able to live peacefully and respectfully with each other.

WHY HOST A GOLF DAY?

Building client relationships
A golf day presents an excellent opportunity to spend quality time with clients and sponsors over a shared interest, allowing for the development of business and personal relationships in an informal environment
Team building
likewise, spending time over a shared interest can help build teams, developing cross company relationships across the Berlin November community. • Rewarding clients & teams by companies – the event will be special enough to be used as an incentive / reward for clients and staff
Fund raising
Potentially combining all of the above to raise funds for good causes that we support yearly.
Interlinked with the above a range of other objectives for companies participating include increasing brand awareness (making more people aware of your brand), brand development (associating positive values with your brand), product launches, social media exposure / content generation and more.
It’s important to note that many of the objectives of a golf day will be “soft” (i.e. hard to measure in the short to medium term – like client goodwill for example) and this needs to be reflected in the measurement of the effectiveness of the golf day.
