Kids Zone During the Holidays at the V&A Waterfront

Giving the kids a chance to celebrate the World Cup the way they know best


The V&A Waterfront is host to a variety of entertainment options geared for kids on holiday. Three dedicated kids’ zones have been set up, along with a Football Focus Show that will take place every day during the World Cup. A boon for busy parents, these activities are sure to find favour.

The three dedicated Kids Zones are as follows:

1. Craft Zone @ the Blue Shed Craft Market from 12:00 to 14:00

Operating in the Workshop area, activities will include arts and crafts workshops to bring out that creative genius; face painting; fun with balloon animals; and “Once upon a time” story telling. Entrance is R30 per entry and the activities are suited for ages 4 to 12.

2. Action Zone @ the Blue Shed Craft Market from 11:00 to 16:00

Operating in the Expo area, Kids will be able to learn ball skills; participate in dance workshops, enjoy soccer quiz games and a movie hour. Live entertainment shows will also take place every Saturday and Sunday at 14:00. Entrance to this zone is free and the activities are suited for ages 6 to 16.

3. Game Zone @ Victoria Wharf Shopping Centre from 11:00 to 16:00

Operating next to Cinema Nouveau, the Game Zone will offer laser target practice; X-Box and Nintendo Games; and a daily “how fast are your fingers” challenge.
