For more than 20 years, Warren Lieberman has travelled across Southern Africa collecting rare instruments and preserving the rhythms that hold the continent’s oldest stories. His life’s work has evolved into Drumstruck at Silvermist - an immersive African music, food, wine and storytelling experience set on Silvermist Organic Wine Estate in Constantia.
Now emerging as one of Cape Town’s top cultural attractions, Drumstruck invites visitors of all ages to feel the heartbeat of South Africa through hands-on drumming, world-class performers and a powerful celebration of African heritage.
Part concert, part feast, part cultural deep dive - Drumstruck at Silvermist is Cape Town’s newest unmissable experience.

No other attraction blends incredible organic wines, a traditional South African braai, world-class African theatre, and hands-on drumming and marimba into one seamless journey. Drumstruck captures the rhythm, flavour and warmth of South Africa in a way that feels authentic and unforgettable.
Every guest receives a drum and gets to play along with the show. Led by performers who have played on Broadway, opened the Beijing Olympics and shared stages with Shakira, Dolly Parton and Will.I.Am, Drumstruck is the world’s first interactive African drum-theatre show.
The Drumstruck theatre houses South Africa’s finest collection of traditional instruments, many of which are played live: the Ngoma Lungunda (God Drum), Royal Ghana Drums, Uhadi bow, Kudu horns, Pedi pipes, Venda nanga, log drums, historic mbiras and more. This museum grew out of Lieberman’s decades-long effort to document and preserve Africa’s musical heritage.
Guests learn how stick-fighting, log-drumming and mielie-pounding evolved into the marimba and akadinda. They hear Bushman trance harmonies, Tswana and Zulu dance rhythms, and even learn a traditional Xhosa wedding song. Drumstruck has published books, created an African music orchestra, and continues to research the traditions it brings to life on stage.
Drumstruck at Silvermist offers an immersive blend of African music, heritage storytelling, drumming, wine and traditional South African cuisine - all set on an organic Constantia wine estate. A uniquely joyful cultural experience.

The feast is a highlight: flame-grilled chops, chicken, boerewors, pap and chakalaka, fresh salads, garlic bread and dessert, all served overlooking the Twelve Apostles. Vegetarian and halaal options are available. It’s generous, warm and communal, exactly how South Africans celebrate together.
Silvermist Organic Wine Estate offers sweeping views over the Constantia valley, award-winning wines, open lawns and farm animals that make Drumstruck ideal for families, couples and groups. Children drum along with glee, explore freely and are fully absorbed in the experience.
Visitors describe Drumstruck as “life-changing,” “the highlight of our trip,” and “the most joyful experience in Cape Town.” The message at the heart of the show is simple: When you see Drumstruck, you will fall in love with South Africa.
