Heritage Day venue moved twice as Western Cape and national governments clash over planning

A dispute in South Africa arose after the Heritage Day celebration was moved twice, from KwaZulu-Natal to George, then to Oudtshoorn. President Cyril Ramaphosa was scheduled to deliver the keynote address in Oudtshoorn. The Western Cape government criticized the lack of consultation and transparency regarding costs and planning, while the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture explained that the move was to allow the annual uMkhosi weLembe commemoration to have its own platform.
