Mother’s Day in Cape Town

Make your mom the highlight of May this year.


Celebrate Mother’s Day in Cape Town on Sunday, 14 May 2017 this year and whether you’re honouring your mom, a mother-to-be or a maternal figure in your life, there’s no better place to spoil her than in the Mother City.

Though the origins of Mother’s Day are not quite precise - it’s debatable whether the beginnings of the holiday are the linked to Greek and Roman celebrations, or whether they’re simply the clever manifestation of greeting card companies – there’s no doubt that motherhood is a thing to be celebrated!

So, make this week hers, whether it’s whisking her away for the weekend, dressing up for a night out on the town or simply presenting her with a bouquet of flowers and a homemade brunch.

Otherwise, take a look at what we’ve put together for you to do with your mom.
