The National Arts Festival is  held annually in Grahamstown.

It's South Africa's best-known and longest-running annual celebration of the Arts, Music, Dance & Theatre.
 
“‘10 Days of Amazing’, is this year's theme (and also describes the new branding for the festival) as it depicts perfectly the essence of what we aim to create – a breathtaking experience in a bubble of intense emotion for ten days each year.

“We want to stimulate a new conversation about the National Arts Festival as a brand. People can expect the same excellent experience this year, we’re just signalling a new energy through a modern look and feel,” said Lankester, Festival CEO.

The “10 days of amazing!” at the National Arts Festival will run from 2 – 11 July 2009, in Grahamstown.
