We have reached the last few days leading up to Women’s Day in South Africa. This year, Women’s Day falls on Tuesday 9 August 2022. It is very important to understand our history and commemorate the women who have come before us to fully celebrate the day.
We at Cape {Town} Etc have you covered with the loveliest activities you can do to enjoy the day.
Totalsports Women’s Race:
The last Totalsports Women’s Race hosted was two years ago (due to the pandemic) making even the process so much more fun and exciting. There is a lot to celebrate with thousands of women across three cities toeing the line on National Women’s Day.
