After 13 memorable and impactful years, Pink Polo will be taking a pause in 2026. Over more than a decade, the event has made a meaningful contribution to cancer initiatives across the Paarl–Franschhoek valley, raising vital funds and awareness and uniting the community around a cause close to many hearts.
While Pink Polo will not take place this year, we remain hopeful that the event may return in 2027. In the meantime, the Val de Vie Foundation remains firmly committed to supporting health, wellbeing and community upliftment, and will continue to invest in initiatives that create lasting, positive impact in the valley and beyond.
The Stella Artois Val de Vie Polo Club is the most active polo club in Africa, hosting action-packed seasonal fixtures on Val de Vie Estate
Pink Polo 2025
The 13ᵗʰ Pink Polo, held on Saturday, 15 March 2025, was an unforgettable day. The organisers sincerely thank all attendees, partners and sponsors who made it possible.
This Pink Polo event is dedicated to supporting CANSA Paarl through the Val de Vie Foundation, raising crucial funds for cancer research, community outreach and screening.
On the day, Ryk Neethling, Marketing & Brand Director of Val de Vie Estate, presented a R200 000 cheque to CANSA Paarl representative and cancer survivor Marjorie Herandien.
Guests were treated to riveting polo, lively entertainment by RAAF and world-class hospitality, all set against the beautiful backdrop of the Cape Winelands.
Thank you to our incredible partners — Stella Artois, Lexus, Ruhens South Africa, YOCO, La Motte, Beyers, Las Paletas, Flossy & Frosé, Monarch Coffee Cartel, RS Sunglasses and Heyday — without whom this social event of the season would not have been possible.
