This May, The Magical Marble Family Fest arrives at James & Ethel Gray Park for two wonder-filled days (9th and 10thMay). Leading the sparkle is Anele Mgudlwa, one of South Africa’s most loved personalities, taking on the starring role of Fairy Godmother of the Explorers.
Known for her vivacious energy and unmistakable laugh, Anele won’t simply be a host of the festival, she will inhabit it. As Fairy Godmother, she becomes the guardian of wonder, the weaver of moments, and the keeper of magic dust, guiding families through a world where imagination and stories are something to be stepped into.
And she won’t be waving her wand alone.
Meet Alakhe, ambassador to the Explorers and the child-experience charm. Joining Fairy Godmother is her real-life son, bringing wit, warmth, and that “kids-get-it” credibility to the festival experience. Together, Anele and Alakhe tell the story of a one-of-a-kind adventure designed to delight little ones, tickle teens and create a space where families find fun together.
“Being at The Magical Marble Family Fest is about laughing more than you expected, playing more than you planned, and letting the day unfold with wonder,” whispers Fairy Godmother, Anele. “It’s about truly exploring, and finding the magic, whether young or old.”
