Something extraordinary is coming to Clarens…From 24–26 September 2026, our mountain village will glow like never before as we host the very first Clarens Festival of Light—a celebration where art, community, sustainability, and storytelling come together beneath the Free State stars. Expect breathtaking light installations, creative expression, and a gentle reminder of how magic and meaning can shine hand in hand. Join us as Clarens lights up the night — sustainably, beautifully, and together.
