Entries Open for The Cape 1000 – South Africa’s Most Beautiful Drive Returns for 2026

Public entries for The Cape 1000, 2026, South Africa’s most prestigious regularity rally, will officially open at 12:00 PM (SAST) on Thursday, 12 June 2025 via www.cape1000.com.

Launched in 2022 and inspired by legendary tribute races around the world, The Cape 1000 offers a unique blend of classic motoring, competitive driving, and scenic exploration over a four-day, 1000-mile (1600 km) adventure through the Western Cape.

Participants compete in four distinctive categories:

  • Pre-1976 (Classic)
  • 1977–1996 (Modern Classic)
  • 1997–current (Sports)
  • Restomod / Recreation

“Although we have a limited supercar category, The Cape 1000 aims to showcase older and rarer vehicles,” says event director Vanessa Crichton. Past entries have included an ultra-rare 1935 Bentley Derby Special, a 1958 Corvette Stingray SWC, a 1966 Sunbeam Tiger, and a 1973 Ferrari Dino.

The rally kicks off with our flagship Show and Shine at the Cape Town Hotel School on Sunday 15th March 2026. The first day will see us traversing the Cape Peninsula followed by scenic routing through to Fancourt and Hermanus before returning to the Mother City for the iconic finish at The Silo Precinct at The Victoria and Alfred Waterfront on Thursday 19th March 2026. While much of the journey is dedicated to grand touring, organisers are placing an increased emphasis on the regularity rallying component for 2026 — combining the thrill of precision driving with the joy of exploring breathtaking landscapes.

Entrants can expect:

  • Spectacular and varied scenery
  • World-class accommodation and hospitality
  • An unforgettable atmosphere of camaraderie
  • Exclusive social experiences
  • Participation in a cause-driven event

Event beneficiaries include:

  • Motorsport Legends Benevolent Fund
  • QuadPara Association of South Africa (QASA)

Spaces are limited and demand is high — interested entrants are strongly encouraged to register as early as possible.

Register from 12:00 PM on Thursday, 12 June 2025 at www.cape1000.com.
