Holistic Expo Plett

Our Story · A Movement

Born from Connection

What began as a casual coffee meet-up for Mossel Bay’s holistic practitioners in 2024 quickly grew into the Iconic Wellness Expo — and a movement. In 2026 it takes its first step beyond Mossel Bay, to Plettenberg Bay.

Evolution & Growth

Over the past three years the expo has earned growing interest from visitors and exhibitors alike, strong community backing — including from the Mayor of Mossel Bay — and steadily rising word-of-mouth awareness. The success of the Iconic Wellness Expo shows us three things:

There is real demand for wellness-focused community events.
Practitioners thrive on shared platforms rather than working in isolation.
The public responds warmly to free, inclusive wellness experiences.

Humble Beginnings · 2024 — 2026

A Tribute to Tenacity

One fearless leader, supported by a team of skilled and brave women, has driven this mission forward — persisting through setbacks and leading the charge to keep making a difference. This spirit of resilience, collaboration and heart-led leadership sits at the core of everything we do.

Our Purpose · Mission & Impact

Our Mission for the Holistic Expo

Our mission is to empower holistic wellness in South Africa by supporting and spotlighting our community of practitioners. We give small businesses a platform to connect, grow and thrive — creating opportunities for networking, education and visibility, so exhibitors can succeed and the wider wellness industry can flourish.

Compassion in Action

We believe wellness should be accessible to all. That’s why the expo will be:

Free for the public

Keeping wellness genuinely accessible to the broader community.

Supportive of diversity

Honouring many cultural and spiritual paths to wellbeing.

Committed to giving back

Supporting two local causes through raffle proceeds — the Sunshine Animal Rescue and Lunchbox Theatre.

At its heart, a WESA event is compassion in action — a reminder that physical, mental, emotional and energetic wellness is the shared right of all, not a privilege reserved for a few.

In Their Words · From Our Exhibitors

Loved by Our Community

My entry into the market went well beyond expectation. Fantastic feedback — KG was loved even by those who, through past experience, disliked kombucha — and I have orders pending. An awesome experience with awesome fellows in a high-vibration, high-energy environment. WOW!

Kombucha Gold — Exhibitor, 2025

Dit was weereens ’n fabulous dag — thank you to everyone who made this day possible. The connections we made, and the geselsies, are priceless. Let’s make the circle bigger and spread the love. Definitely see you again in 2026.
