Though the 2025 Cape Town Carnival is some months away, we already know a storm is brewing! The Stormers themselves are set to join the iconic parade so the city will get to celebrate with their favourite rugby squad!
Cape Town, South Africa (03 December 2024) — Stormers fans have just been given even more of a good reason to attend the 2025 Cape Town Carnival thanks to the news that the city’s favourite rugby squad will be joining in on the festivities!
The beloved carnival is known for uniting Capetonians from all walks of life. It’s largely the city’s ultimate display of creativity and community—everything from costumes to floats and performances give local creatives a chance to shine. With dancers, performers, firefighters and floats all on vibrant display, crowds are spoilt with choice for their favourite acts.
But next year, the Stormers will be a sure contender for crowd-favourite. The 15th Cape Town Carnival will see the iconic team feature as part of the festivities for the first time!
On Saturday 15 March, Green Point’s Fanwalk is set to come alive with the squad on their dedicated ‘Taking the Cape by Storm float’ so carnival attendees who double as rugby die-hards can see their heroes up close.
“As a proud Capetonian, I know how much the Carnival means to the City,” shares team captain Dan du Plessis.
“So we cannot wait to be part of the 15th anniversary. Some of the guys in the squad have already started practising their moves and are excited to show them off to everyone when we hit the Fanwalk next year.”
