Cape Town’s newest luxury motorsport event debuts this October

Sip premium wines, savour world-class cuisine, and feel the roar of nearly 150 iconic cars as the Speed Classic Cape Town makes its debut this October. Blending the glamour of a lifestyle festival with the thrill of motorsport, the inaugural event promises a weekend unlike any other.

A Track with a View

On 25 and 26 October 2025, Philip Kgosana Drive will transform into a 1.8 km racetrack for two adrenaline-charged days. Saturday, 25 October, is dedicated to the Classics, showcasing rare vintage icons, while Sunday, 26 October, shifts into overdrive with modern supercars battling it out for the King of the Mountain title.

VIP Lifestyle Meets Motorsport

For those seeking the ultimate race weekend, the premium hospitality lounge offers unrivalled access. Just metres from the track, with big screens capturing every angle, guests will enjoy a front-row motorsport spectacle paired with five-star service.

The hospitality package includes:

  • A full open bar with premium beverages and barista coffee
  • Gourmet dining throughout the day
  • Canapés on arrival, a harvest table, sweet treats, and themed food stations (including Proudly South African and Pasta Bar offerings)
  • Exclusive pit lane access to witness drivers and mechanics preparing for the climb

Cars to Watch

Saturday’s classic highlights include:

  • 1980 Ferrari 208 GTB – one of just eight in South Africa
  • 1939 Bentley 4.5L Le Mans – the only known example in the country

Sunday’s modern supercar lineup features:

  • Ferrari SF90 Stradale – one of just 11 locally
  • Lamborghini Aventador – among the fastest naturally aspirated V12s ever built
  • Ferrari 488 GT3 – a true racing thoroughbred

More Than a Motorsport Event

“From the outset, our vision for the Speed Classic Cape Town was to create more than just a motorsport event,” says Race Director Enzo Kuun. “Think the Cape Town MET, but with high-octane racing, stylish crowds, luxury touches, and an unforgettable race weekend.”

With its curated blend of style, speed, and sophistication, the event positions Cape Town alongside the world’s top luxury motorsport destinations.

Ticket Information

With limited tickets available, the Speed Classic Cape Town is set to be a sell-out event – one where motorsport and lifestyle meet in spectacular fashion.
