This year’s theme Cape Town Window to the World – reflects the diversity that thrives in the Cape. The Festive Lights Switch-On occasion provides citizens with the unique opportunity to come together in unity and show the world just why this city is the number one leading events destination in Africa, and around the globe. Competitions geared to exemplifying the theme, will also be activated on the day with loads of cool prizes up for grabs. Follow the hashtag #FLSO2019 on social media to win prizes.
The theme also resonates in another challenge the city has launched this year – the Festive Lights Switch-On 2019 Waste to Art Challenge, which asks students 16 years and under to create art pieces (pictures, clothing, furniture, sculptures etc) from waste materials, to be showcased in a specially created gallery.
