In honor of Museum Month, the James Hall Museum of Transport is organizing a curated outdoor vintage motor display for vehicle aficionados in Johannesburg.
Some of Gauteng’s trendiest vintage automobile clubs, such as Ciao (Classic Italian Auto Owners), as well as other vintage car collectors and members of the general public, have been invited to this celebration of Joburg’s urban culture.
This family-friendly event begins at 10:00 and concludes at 18:00, and will include a vintage artisan market, live musicians, DJs, and, in keeping with the theme of the day, retro food trucks providing food and refreshments to guests.
Artists that have been billed include a beautiful line-up of some of Jozi’s top and upcoming live bands and DJs such as BCUC, The Charles Gene Suite, Kitchen Mess, Kamo Matsoso, DJ Mamthug, DJ SediSoul, DJs Nikita and TopNotch and DJ Tataplz.
Gaisang Sathekge, chief curator of the James Hall Museum of Transport, said, “International Museum Week celebrates history, culture, and heritage by giving museums globally the opportunity to showcase their collections.”
“It is an important month to promote a museum-going culture in South Africa. It is also an opportune moment to give communities the power to write their history and to re-imagine their own heritage at a time where culture is dynamic and constantly changing,” Sathekge continued.
WHEN AND WHERE?
Visitors are encouraged to bring their picnic blankets, cushions, and chairs to enjoy the activities of the day in a relaxed environment.

The event will take place on 28 May at 193 Rosettenville Road, La Rochelle, Johannesburg. It is free to the public, but visitors will need to register here to redeem their free ticket.
