Killarney Extreme Festival 2026

All thrills, all spectacle at Cape Town’s biggest motorsport festival

Door-to-door battles, contact racing, blazingly fast Superbikes, and a kids carnival

Last updated: Monday, 9 February 2026

South Africa’s fastest and most exciting racers descend on Killarney in March, turning the track into a full-throttle showcase of door-to-door battles, contact racing and pure spectacle. The high-octane entertainment goes beyond the start line too, where fans can access the pits and meet drivers, while kids’ carnival rides, entertainment and bumper cars and family braais run right alongside the action.

It’s part race day, part fairground, and all-out sensory overload. Extreme Festival powered by the City of Cape Town and Smile 90.4FM in association with Webtickets, takes over Killarney International Raceway on Saturday, 14 March 2026.
