Cape Town Gay Pride twirls its way into town for the 16th consecutive year in 2020. The event normally takes place on the last weekend in February, celebrating cultural diversity and to create awareness for LGBTIQ issues in South Africa and beyond.
When it comes to Gay Pride Cape Town has its own style, with hot winter sun, pristine beaches and the backdrop of Sugarloaf Mountain you just know it’s going to be magical.
This time around, the calendar highlight includes a fantastic collection of parties, parades and protests scattered across the 10-day period.
Ten days of parties and parades, all of Cape Town comes together to make gay pride an event to remember, the bars and clubs have lots of event nights to keep you entertained and of course you have the legendary pool party at the Glen Hotel, one of Cape Town’s best gay hotels.
The theme of Cape Town Pride 2020 is “No Excuses. No Regrets.” The Pride is partnering up with Cape Town Carnival who will be lending some of their costumes to add extra fabulosity to the parade on the day of the event. The festival includes a variety of events such as drag shows, book launches, sporting events, film shows, poetry reading, and art exhibitions.
The Pride officially kicks off on Saturday with three very popular events taking place. The legendary Cozy Pool Party – Pride Edition, The Kasi Pre- Pride Party in Gugulethu taking place in the afternoon, then The Mr and Miss Cape Town Pride Pageant taking place at the Joseph Stone Auditorium (Athlone) in the evening.
