Penguin Festival


Where: SANCCOB saves seabirds - 22 Pentz Drive, Table View, 7441 Cape Town, Western Cape

When: Saturday October 7th at 10 AM - 4 PM

Tickets: https://goo.gl/uKwm3y

African Penguin Awareness Day is on 7 October and we will celebrate it with our 15th annual Penguin Festival at Simon's Town Navy Sports Field, in collaboration with SANParks (Table Mountain National Park). This special day is dedicated to raising worldwide awareness about the plight of the endangered African penguin, the only penguin endemic to the African continent.

Join us at 10h00 on Seaforth Beach for an exclusive opportunity to witness the release of African penguins – rehabilitated and ready to return back to the wild. Funds raised at the festival will contribute to SANCCOB’s continued work to rehabilitate and release seabirds.

After the penguin release, we’ll all make our way to the Simon’s Town Navy Sports Field, situated right next to Seaforth Beach, for the festivities to continue.
This year, the festival offers:
•           live music
•           kids’ activities (mini rides, inflatable obstacle course, face-painting, jumping castle, climbing wall)
•           an edutainment marquee
•           marine conservation exhibitions
•           environmental talks
•           a variety of food trucks & boerewors rolls
•           craft beer & wine tasting
There will be prizes for best penguin outfits too.

A fun day for all!

General admission is free.

Entry into the Kids Zone is R50 and parking will be available at the Seaforth Beach parking area.
