June in Cape Town means Cape Town in winter, but this should not keep you solely by the cosy fire, but you must explore the magic of the many Cape Town events in winter.

In June there will be often a foggy start of the day, so take care when heading outside early, but usually the fog and clouds lift later in the morning, so clear sunny days are the norm even in winter.

Remember, Sunday 16 June is Youth Day, a public holiday, this will be celebrated also with a public holiday on Monday 17 June 2019. Sunday, 25 May is Africa Day, although not a public holiday, many museums in the city will be open to the public for free. 

The winter school holidays in South Africa will be from 14 June 2019 until 8 July 2019. Please be aware that events book up quickly during these times. Now here is a selection of great events and activities in the Mother City in May. Enjoy winter in the Mother City!
