HERITAGE day celebrations will start with a parade from Pretoria’s Church Square at 10.30am on Friday, and up to 10000 revellers are expected to join in the fun. The march to the Union Buildings will be led by a vintage Rolls Royce and about 500 performers and school children. The group will include dancers from a number of South African groups, gum-boot dancers, brass bands, drum majorettes, clowns, fire-eaters, stilt-walkers, former Miss South Africa competition winners and a number of television celebrities. Deputy President Jacob Zuma and Arts, Culture, Science and Technology Minister Ben Ngubane will review the parade upon its arrival at the Union Buildings. Later, revellers will be treated to a free two-hour concert featuring bands like Squeal, Mdu and Bayete. The Department of Arts, Culture, Science and Technology says Pretoria was chosen as the venue for this year’s festivities because the city is steeped in a rich diversity of arts and culture representing all South African ethnic groups.
