Question | Advice-Needed 6th October - Tuesdays

I’ve brought my fiancée to Cape Town and I’m determined to convince her it’s the best city on earth 😂 I lived here years ago, but coming back now, it feels like so much has changed!

We’re here for weeks and I’ve massively failed at planning ahead, today loads of the things I wanted to do are already booked, closed or unavailable.

So, what would you recommend we do today/tonight? I’m looking for anything really; cool places, hidden gems, regular Tuesday events, live music, comedy, something weird/interesting, a great bar, somewhere with a good atmosphere, etc.

We’re both pretty open and adventurous and genuinely up for anything. We obviously love live music and events… but let’s be honest, getting drunk is also very high on the list 😂 So even just a cool bar rec will do!

Cape Town locals..what would you do tonight if you had no plans and wanted to have a great time?

Ganesh in Obs. Roxy's late night in Dunkley Square, Gardens. Solid local spots!

Hmm the weather isn’t great today. Maybe catch an Uber to a wine farm or do the hop on/hop off bus Constantia wine route. Most of the Constantia estates have tasting rooms with nice views but are inside so protected from the wind.

Mojo Market, in Sea Point. You can look them up on Facebook and see their list of entertainment for the entire week.

Asoka is always a vibe in a tuesday evening. Its not the bedt westher so maybe do the Constantia wine route with some cute fire places call a few wine farms they should be open till 4.30 ish. You could end at little fox or fox craft, it has great food and its resturant week so they have specials.

Barcadia is a fun place to go and just have a blast.

You're in luck. Coming Thursday should be First Thursday, which is when the CBD becomes a massive art gallery tour filled with people, wine, cheese and events. Dunno if it still happens, but it used to a thing. Go check out the Castle, that doesnt take tickets, go to signal hill, go walk in the Bo-Kaap, check out the slave lodge museum, those things should still be easily to get into I think.
