Thornfest is a music festival that was created by Thornrose Music in effort to create awareness about the South African music industry. Thornfest was originally a 1 day music festival that took place in January for the past few years. It has now been turned into a full 4 day camping festival taking place from the 28th – 31st January 2010 at Route 28 Resort. +- 50 km from JHB north.

Thornfest the Camp will host over 100 Artists over 3 stages. There has not been a music festival in Africa yet to do this. Not only will there be plenty of live acts but also loads of other entertainment will take place at the festival including beer tents, food stalls, fashion, merchandise stalls, drinking games, movie theatre, extreme sports, swimming, comedy, DJ’s, fire dancers, wet t- shirt competitions, tattoo’s, bull rides, guitar hero, arts & crafts and LOADS more…
