Whoop whoop mense, the Festive Season is here!
And what better way to start it off than with a lekker homegrown and FREE show?
On Sunday, pack your picnic basket and chairs and bring the kids to the Cape Town CBD to see the liggies.
Mayor Dan Plato will officially be switching on the Festive Lights, preceded by a kwaai concert.

The City of Cape Town warned of a few house rules yesterday: ‘We will not tolerate any anti-social behaviour or underage drinking.
“Special attention is being paid to security measures within the event footprint, especially in respect of access control.
“The event area will be fenced off and entry will be through chutes at secured access points. In addition, patrons will be searched and prohibited items will be confiscated. No alcohol and other substances, or glass bottles will be allowed.”
The music show starts at 4 pm on the Grand Parade, and the liggies will ignite Adderley Street at 8.30pm, followed by a spectacular 3D video mapping experience on the City Hall facade.
