Setting the mood will be Durban’s own Gary McKenzie, performing live spring-inspired music while keeping guests informed about ongoing centre-wide spring promotions and specials.

“Increasingly, we understand the need to nurture a sense of neighbourhood in places where we gather, " said Steve King of Glenwood Village. 

"And what better occasion to celebrate our shared community than the beginning of spring,” he added.

Entry is free, and all are welcome.
