As the Mother City gears up for the Cape Town Triathlon happening this Sunday, 23 March 2025. The City would like to advise residents and spectators of the road closures for event day.
The third edition of the RSAWEB Cape Town Triathlon takes place on the Atlantic Seaboard, with participants swimming in Granger Bay, followed by a cycle from the Grand Beach Café to Bantry Bay and ending off with a run around the Green Point Urban Park.
Participants will take on a 1500m swim, 40km cycle and a 10km run for standard distance or a 750m swim, 20km cycle and 5km run for sprint distance.
‘We are excited to welcome the Cape Town Triathlon back on our streets and coastline after a one-year hiatus. There aren’t many events where participants are tested in the ocean, on land on a bicycle and on foot – all on the same day. Not only is the event a display of the athletes’ physical endurance, but also serves as a wonderful showcase for the Mother City’s natural beauty. We’re looking forward to hosting all the athletes in our beautiful city,’ said Mayoral Committee Member for Safety and Security, Alderman JP Smith.
As a result of the race, several roads in the Green Point Precinct, Granger Bay, Mouille Point and Sea Point will be affected.
