Oppikoppi reveals 2012 festival theme

March 28, 2012

Cape Town – Oppikoppi on Wednesday announced the theme for its 18th annual rock festival to be held in Northam in the North West.

Every year the Oppikoppi team delivers a funky, original theme to underpin the festival.

The theme for Oppikoppi 18 is Sweet Thing.

The theme name was inspired by a Van Morrison Song titled Sweet Thing. The lyric, “Hey it’s me I am dynamite… and I don’t know why” serves as the core of the theme as it is “for everyone who has ever felt like dynamite without quite knowing why”.

The Oppikoppi team commissioned fine artist Gavin Rain, famous for his hand painted, tech driven photos of people, to come up with the image and the team from produced the artwork for the poster.
