‘The team have been working tirelessly to make sure the day is a great experience for everyone…from market stalls and food vendors, an NGO Village, and of course a full line up of live artistes and DJs, including some of the country’s top performers and drag acts on the main stage,’ Patterson said.

Patterson stated that in order to ensure that everyone in Cape Town could experience Pride, they had once again partnered with Golden Arrow Bus Services, who were offering free rides on regular routes with the presentation of a Mardi Gras ticket from 8.30am to 8pm.
‘All our LGBTQIA+ NGO partners have been allocated free tickets to Mardi Gras for the communities they service,’ Patterson said.
