MORE THAN A CRAFT MARKET

This Is DAM FEES

DAM FEES 2026 is a five-day lifestyle event created for families, food lovers, local supporters and anyone looking for a great day out in Hartbeespoort.

At the centre of the experience is a carefully curated craft market featuring talented makers and distinctive local products. Around it, visitors can enjoy food and drink, live music, and family entertainment.

The vision is to establish DAM FEES as an annual destination event that people are willing to travel to, businesses are proud to support and the Hartbeespoort community can call its own.
