Experience the unique Shembe Celebration in beautiful Zululand...

Shembe has a strong following of about 4.5 million people, and each year during the last three weeks of October over 25,000 Zulu Shembes gather in Judea near Eshowe to meet their Leader. The Village literally springs up overnight at their yearly gathering place. This is an absolute eye opener and gives one a chance to meet the Shembes and their Saviour. Saturday is the traditional prayer dance, and on the Sunday followers get an opportunity to be healed and blessed by Shembe. There is a tremendous emphasis on traditional dress and dance, praise singing and the blowing of the Horns of Jericho. (The origin of the vuvuzela).

(The best time to come would be on the weekends, especially on Sundays, with the second Sunday being the most vibrant.)
