Full speed ahead
It's not yet T-shirt weather, but Joburg's social scene is warming up. Weekend markets, cinemas are open (including the Sandton City drive-in), there are exhibitions to visit, and rooftop sundowners to enjoy, (check this one out on Ponte's top floor!) and of course a Monday public holiday gifting us all a long weekend. 

Read on. We've got ideas on how to spend the Women's Day weekend, our coffee columnist shares her top Instagrammable coffee spots, the new Radisson RED opens its doors, there's a bumper sporting event weekend ahead, plus we visited the incredible new exhibition at Joburg Centre for Contemporary Art (don't waste time – book your visit immediately). 

And finally, because everyone loves a prize, we're giving away eight R500 UberEats voucher. Head over to Instagram for a chance to win!
