KNYSNA NEWS - If you've been thinking of attending the Mr Gay World™ 2018 contest in spectacular Knysna, South Africa this May, the big day draws near.

Mr Gay World™ has teamed up with LGBTQ travel company Mamba Tours to offer international and South African visitors an official one-stop service to experience the event, taking place from 20 to 27 May, 2018, and the area’s many attractions.

Around 20 handsome men from across the globe are set to descend on Knysna, one of South Africa's most beautiful locations, to represent their nations in competing for the coveted international crown.

They'll be joined by thousands of revellers who will also celebrate the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras and Arts Festival, Africa’s largest LGBTQ festival, taking place in Knysna at the same time as Mr Gay World™ 2018.

In addition to the Mr Gay World™ President's Ball and Fundraising Auction and Grand Finale, the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras and Arts Festival will host a variety of LGBTQ events, including parties, art exhibitions, drag shows and much more. Monies raised go towards local charities.

The Mamba Tours team can organise all travel arrangements to attend Mr Gay World™ 2018 and the Pink Loerie Festival, including flights, accommodation, tickets to official events, as well as other leisure and adventure activities in the area.

They have also put together a selection of packages for local visitors to suit all pockets.

"These days we can do much ourselves online, but Mamba Tours will take the stress, confusion and wasted time out of arranging a trip like this," says Mr Gay World™ Chairperson of the Board Igor Scheurkogel. "They also have an intimate knowledge of our events, Knysna and the region’s best kept secrets."
