Vaal Riviera
This first-of-its kind reality series dives into everything from personal drama and big family moments to fast cars, hunting weekends and brandy and coke. Car racing is a huge part of life here, and the show brings that adrenaline right to the screen.
The show doesn’t only centre the women. The men are part of the story in a real, unfiltered way, as fathers, sons, brothers and racers. They’re involved in the chaos, the conflict and the love that holds it all together.
The kids aren’t just in the background either. They’re involved and they give the show even more heart.
Produced by POP24, the team behind The Mommy Club: Van Die Hoofstad, Vaal Riviera is packed with personality, speed, emotion and humour. It’s a show for everyone!
Stream Vaal Riviera now, with new episodes every Tuesday on Showmax.
