The Investec Cape Town Art Fair is a global highlight, drawing over 30 000 art lovers, collectors and creatives in the name of exciting contemporary art from Africa and beyond.
The 2025 edition is the most ambitious yet, with over 30 first-time exhibitors and 500 artists (the most in the event’s history) in over 7 000 square meters of space.
It’s happening from 21 to 23 February 2025 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
We unpack what’s new, including galleries from Tokyo and Kuwait City; the must-see galleries and artists, the ticket options (like the private preview Vernissage which is open to everyone for the first time) and how best to experience the fair.
