We're turning the red carpet pink at Sun Met 2020 and thanks to our friends at BLOOM Gin & Greenall's Gin ZAlebs will be out there all day (and night) and the team is super excited.
The ZAlebs hub is buzzing, all the running around and prepping for Africa's richest racing day in the mother city has got us a little cray. But, we're not going alone...you're coming with us. Yes, you at home - you may have missed out on the Sun Met Competition but you're still our special guest.
Don't forget to join us on all our social media pages and watch us as we report the ins and outs of the ZAlebs team live from the Sun Met.
Not to mention, we've got a date. Our lucky winner from our Sun Met Competition will be joining us in the festivities of the day, but more on that a little later.
Tomorrow, we rise and shine and get prepped in our African Luxury themed attire - ready to take in the atmosphere of the Sun Met. We'll be showing you around on our socials and letting you have the full experience of the day, from the comfort of your home.
By noon, you won't want to miss a thing. Our social streaming will be lit with celebrity faces and entertainment. ZAlebs has got you covered and we have an exclusive spot reserved for you on the red carpet.

We're excited to see that Sun Ambassador, Bonang Matheba, the reigning Miss South Africa, Sasha-Lee Olivier, Photographer Trevor Stuurman, Fashion stylist & influencer , Sarah Langa and designer Rich Mnisi - among many others - will all be gracing us with their on-theme outfits.

While you sip on that, meet our Sun Met winner, Miss Xolelwa Mzili. This beautiful competition winner was so excited to hear that she was our lucky pick and we'll be following up with her at the Sun Met to see what she's wearing and who she got to #LiveFullBloom with.

Lastly, we'll be finishing the night off strong and heading to the after party. Yes, we're breaking it down on the dance floor at the official Sun Met, 'Africa is Not a Jungle' party. We'll be in good company with DJ Black Coffee, Themba (formally known as Euphonik) and DJ Da Capo on the decks.

It's going to be such a good time and you won't to want to miss the chance to say, 'I was there', right? So, instead we'll say, 'See you there".
Just a note about summer gin and tonics and what we learned from our friends at BLOOM GIN and Greenall's - do you know that some gins have up to 90 grams of sugar per liter while Greenall's Wild Berry and BLOOM Jasmine and Rose Gins are deliciously sugar free? We didn't know either but now we do - and you do too.
