Celebrate Heritage Day with the Big Save World Record Braai Day in Johannesburg, South Africa

Johannesburg, South Africa - This Heritage Day, 24th of September, Loftus Versfeld Stadium will come alive with the smell of sizzling wors and the sound of laughter. South Africans will unite for the Big Save World Record Braai Day. White Star is proud to be the official pap partner of this historic event and invites everyone to share in the excitement.

The Ambitious Plan for a Record-Breaking Braai

The goal is ambitious: to set a new world record for the greatest number of people braaiing at the same time. White Star is the ultimate companion to the braai, adding that perfect white and fluffy pap that completes every South African braai plate.
