Greenacres to host Valentine’s affair
CELEBRATE the Month of Love with A Love A Fair, a Valentine’s market to be held at Greenacres in Port Elizabeth from next Friday to Sunday, February 9 to 11.
The three-day event at the shopping centre will also include a brand new Mr & Miss Greenacres pageant, a fashion show, entertainment and lucky draws.
Organiser Elsje Smuts, of True Blue Communication and Events, said A Love A Fair was about creating an exciting experience for the public.
“It will take place on the mezzanine parking level at the back of the centre,” Smuts said.
The entertainment kicks off on Friday with the opening of the market and performances by dancers from the Leanka Laubscher School of Dance.

Luister FM 2016 and Face of PE 2017) and Dr Crystal Watson.
The pageant will be preceded by a fashion show at 11am, presented by Gail Brown of Sophisticate Models.
The market will trade from 12pm to 7pm on the Friday, 9am to 5pm on the Saturday and 9am to 1pm on Sunday. Entrance costs R20 with children under seven years entering for free.
