Heritage and tourism stakeholders in Nelson Mandela Bay agreed yesterday that greater co-operation and dismantling “silos”, along with more action and less complaining, are key to unlocking the tourism potential of the metro’s unique and diverse heritage.
NMB Executive Mayor Gary van Niekerk said the MBDA had “taken on a huge responsibility to renew and revive in Nelson Mandela Bay”, and he looked forward to executable plans and action coming out of the Indaba. Van Niekerk said the value of heritage “cannot be understated” and that the Bay needed to “brag more” about its unique heritage and the growth of community-based events such as the Richmond Hill Street Music Festival and Ebubeleni Festival.
The St Peter’s precinct will open to visitors before the end of the year, to be packaged for operation by private industry role-players while ensuring the social connection to old South End is maintained. Qaba said a request for proposals had been advertised for prospective operators for a zipline in the lower Baakens Valley for an “inner-city adventure offering”.
