The Outdoor and Adventure Expo will return to B’sorah near Hartbeespoort Dam from Friday 14 August to Sunday 16 August.
First staged in 2023, the event has established itself as a dedicated outdoor lifestyle show for families, including dogs on leashes. B’sorah, located on a cattle and game farm, offers hiking and cycling trails and is easily accessible from Pretoria, Johannesburg, the West Rand and Rustenburg.
The expo is laid out so that caravans, trailers, off‑road campers and overland vehicles are grouped together, making it easier for visitors to explore. All 4x4s, utility vehicles and related equipment are clustered alongside a demonstration track.
Camping gear, tents, mountain bikes, braai tools, clothing and fridges are grouped in a separate section. A new feature this year is the “Destinations and Adventures” area, which highlights leisure opportunities away from city life.
Entertainment is part of the programme, with a beer garden under the trees and a big‑screen television showing the Bulls versus the All Blacks on Saturday. Children have a play area, while teenagers can enjoy F1 simulator games.
4x4 owners can tackle the obstacle course in their own vehicles or join convoy drives along SUV and 4x4 routes. Weekend camping is available, adding to the immersive experience. The site provides ample ablution facilities and shaded seating.
Charging time remains a worry for many South Africans considering an electric vehicle, who still see it as a disruption rather than a quick stop at a filling station. That view is starting to shift.

The move meant exchanging the West Coast’s cooler climate and seaside lifestyle for the Northern Cape’s desert heat, while taking responsibility for a multi-franchise operation spread across several premises.

Cars are the ultimate symbol of freedom, independence and individualism. They offer the freedom to ‘go anywhere,’ whenever it suits and with whom one chooses.
