“Cape Town has a lot of festivities but there isn’t one that cuts across all the cultures, all the communities” says Mayaluga Consultant Isabel Meyer. So along with Executive Mayor Helen Zille the City of Cape Town the Cape Town Carnival was launched today.

Meyer says “basically it is an event where we try and bring together all the people of Cape Town, so the first aim of the Cape Town carnival which will have inaugural carnival from the 12th to the 14th of March 2010 will be to bring all these communities together and really just bring all the creatives together and commerce and tourism to work together.”

The theme for 2010 is Rhythm, Roots and Boots and there is more information on the website: capetowncarnival.com or capetowncarnival.co.za.
