Western Cape Is Always The Home Of Community

With the seasonal Summer influx of tourists across the Western Cape, one of the major drawcards to the region is the cultural hubs of the communities and neighbourhoods, which continue to thrive and welcome all who visit.

The culture of the Western Cape goes beyond boundaries, with neighbourhoods coming together as one community.

Regardless of background, culture, or where you live, the pride of the Western Cape lies in its ability to embrace diversity and foster a deep sense of belonging.

  • “Summer in Cape Town isn’t just a season; it’s an attitude! We want every visitor to feel the rhythm of summer, the joy of reconnecting, and the pure magic of this city. Cape Town is the place to be, and we are ready!” says Enver Duminy, CEO of Cape Town Tourism.

Building on this spirit, Jive launched the “My Jive, My Hood” initiative in October, aimed at uniting the diverse neighbourhoods of the Western Cape. At its core, the campaign celebrates the vibrant energy of local communities, encouraging residents to reconnect with their roots through shared experiences and a renewed sense of pride. More than just a celebration, this initiative is about creating lasting connections and fostering a sense of belonging across the city’s diverse neighbourhoods.

By highlighting iconic areas such as Die Baan (Langebaan), Die Plain (Mitchells Plain), and Bontas (Bonteheuwel), “My Jive, My Hood” is sparking a renewed sense of pride and unity throughout the Western Cape. The initiative encourages residents to share their personal stories, embrace their heritage, and support local projects that nurture the cultural vibrancy of their communities. Showcasing the famous nicknames of local areas, the campaign visually celebrates the region’s cultural richness.
