Our second of twelve public holidays for 2022 (1 January was the first one, if you’re wondering). Now, if you’re pretty wise and if possible, you’ll apply for leave on Friday, 18 March 2022, to get 4 days off instead of just 3… because more is always better!
If it’s not possible, at least there’s the long Easter weekend just around the corner. Anyways, what are we actually celebrating instead of just long weekends? Human Rights Day on Monday, 21 March 2022 – the affirmation by ordinary people rising in unison to proclaim their rights.
There are loads of fun and worthwhile things to do on South Africa’s first commemorative day, and we’re giving you a breakdown.
Alto234 and a Journey Through the Leonardo Art
Sandton Central invites you to Alto234 from now until 31 March 2022! The what now?! You may ask… Well, the highest urban bar in Africa combined with a journey through The Leonardo Art. Let’s rephrase – Come and join us for The Leonardo Art Experience that has been married to African design elements. Yes, an art tour, indeed! Read more about it here.
Theatre on the Square – Classical Music Concert
Have you ever been to a classical music concert? If your answer is no, then it’s time you realise that 2022 is the year to start doing and experiencing new things. If your answer is yes, well, then you’ll be amazed at the one currently in town! Follow this link to everything you need to know.
High Tea in the City – DaVinci Lounge
For all the tea lovers, join us for an urban High Tea in the City every Saturday in the elegant DaVinci Lounge situated in a spectacular open setting with natural lighting throughout.

Just Parks, Restaurants & Shopping
Perhaps you’re just looking into doing something that’s chilled? Then consider taking the family for a picnic in one of Sandton’s beautiful parks (before the cold hinders us from enjoying the outdoors), or enjoy breakfast dinner or lunch at a Sandton restaurant you haven’t been to before (remember new things in 2022), or just throw yourself in some relaxing retail therapy.
May your Human Rights Day be a memorable one, Sandton!
