The very first troupe for the Kaapse Klopse Carnival was organised in 1887! The Cape Town Kaapse Klopse we know today was heavily influenced by the American Minstrels. Old minstrels would parade the streets of Cape Town and sing their New Year songs to all the locals - there's the 'gees' we always talk about!
The Cape Town Minstrel Carnival, otherwise known as the Tweede Nuwe Jaar (Second New Year), is a colourful parade in Cape Town that is as rich in history as it is in culture and extravagance. It’s a lively event popular with all locals in Cape Town and is considered a must-see for all visitors.
