 2010 is the kick-off for this new carnival which is designed to bring all Capetonians together to celebrate their differences - through the universal language of dance, music, cultural and creative expression.
Using the Rio Carnival as inspiration, the Cape Town Carnival hopes to show off the uniqueness of South Africans - in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
The theme for 2010 is “Rhythm, Roots & Boots”, inspired by Cape Town’s rich cultural, artistic and historical heritage.
