It’s the one day that Cape Town, known for its spectacular beauty, is swathed in its most stylish, glorious and fashionable designs, and where race-goers step out in all their finery to celebrate one of the city’s most anticipated events.

The stage is set for a record day in every respect when the gates open at Kenilworth Racecourse in Cape Town on Saturday morning, January 29th, for one of South Africa’s biggest summer racing, fashion and entertainment occasions, and Africa’s hottest horseracing event, in the J&B Met.

Expect a full day of exciting horse racing, fashion and live entertainment, at one of Cape Town’s most famous affairs as an expected crowd of 50,000 gather to celebrate this year’s “Larger than Life” themed event. This year’s theme is a salute to the spontaneous, a tip of the hat to the unconventional, a bow to the bold and a high-five to the unexpected. Dress to match your larger-than-life personality.
