On Saturday, 4 January 2025, the Cape Town Street Parade, known as Tweede Nuwe Jaar, will welcome the New Year in the CBD.

 

Approximately 20,000 performers from 18 minstrel troupes will entertain crowds with the rhythmic symphony of banjos, guitars, ghoema drums, trombones, and tubas.

 

The procession of performers will start from District Six around midday, and crowds will be entertained along the historic route before ending in Bo-Kaap.

 

Hundreds of thousands of spectators are expected to line the streets, with many who will camp out hours ahead of time to secure the best viewing spot.

 

In their dazzling colourful costumes, the performers will also put on a show in front of the historic City Hall and along Darling Street, where thousands of spectators will gather.

 

The event will significantly impact several roads around the CBD on Saturday, 4 January 2025 between 06:00 and 23:55.
