The Philippolis Witblitz Festival occurs in April every year in the show grounds of Philippolis. Drum majorettes, a boere-orkes (orchestra playing traditional Afrikaans music), a Scottish Pipe Band and various other performances are given.
Stalls, games, go-carts, motorbike and car displays, farming implement displays, and loads more can be seen and experienced. 4×4, cycling, oil-wrestling, beer-drinking and witblitz-drinking competitions are also held, as well as a Mr and Miss Witblitz pageant.
