25 and 26 October will see the return of competitive hillclimb racing to the Mother City when Speed Classic Cape Town roars to life against the stunning backdrop of Table Mountain.
Witness the challenging, twisting tarmac of Philip Kgosana Drive transform into a racetrack, and celebrate the heart of motoring heritage and modern performance.
Speed Classic Cape Town features an invitational field of rare, iconic, and high-performance machines. The weekend is split into two distinct, high-octane experiences: The Classic Car race on Saturday is a magnificent showcase of timeless engineering and timeless design, bringing some of the rarest motoring jewels out of private collections and onto the track. On Sunday, the King of the Mountain challenge shifts the focus to modern marvels, where cutting-edge supercars, GT3s, and speed machines battle the clock for the ultimate time trial glory.
Backed by Motorsport South Africa and the City of Cape Town, Speed Classic is designed to be a world-class, family-friendly event. Beyond the roar of the engines, attendees can enjoy a vibrant Race Village with local food vendors, lifestyle activations, open paddocks for up-close views of the vehicles, and premium VIP Hospitality options.
Speed Classic Cape Town is where motor racing’s past meets its electrifying future, and connoisseurs, speed enthusiasts and families can look forward to a unforgettable experience.

When you join a photography tour, it is easy to focus on getting the perfect shot. But great travel photography is not only about composition, lighting, and timing. It is also about respect. As a guest in another location, you are stepping into people’s everyday lives, communities, and meaningful spaces. The way you photograph others should reflect curiosity, humility, and especially care.

Seasonality has become part of everyday dining, particularly in the Cape, where chefs increasingly cook with local harvests front of mind. Recently appointed to lead gastronomy at Vergenoegd Löw Wine Estate in Stellenbosch, Executive Chef Michelle Theron brings more than 20 years of fine-dining experience to a 160-hectare farm known for regenerative agriculture and its famous flock of Indian Runner ducks, which naturally manage pests in the vineyards.
Across the Cape Winelands and the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, conferencing venues come into their own this time of year. Think vineyard views instead of blank walls. Fireside chats instead of fluorescent lighting. Fresh air between sessions.
It’s the season for team getaways that actually work.
So, if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to plan a conference, strategy session, or leadership retreat – this is it.
We’ve put together a list of five standout venues doing it right this autumn.
