GHOST MOTORFEST — SUNDAY 29 NOVEMBER 2026 — THE WICKET, NEWLANDS
70+ cars and 20+ motorcycles. Indoors. Under one roof, for one day.
A 1-day indoor motor festival across two buildings at Newlands, with four themedhalls, live music and a DJ, food and drink traders on site, and a VIP area besidethe stage. Everything is under a roof, so the weather never gets a vote.
THE FOUR HALLS
- Classic — pre-1980 machinery, unrestored where possible.· Sports — the quick stuff. Coupes and roadsters, parked nose-out so the door lines and the stance read from the aisle.· Stance — fitment, wheels and ride height, given the most floor per car in the hall so nothing crowds an arch or a sill.· Race — purpose-built and ex-competition cars.
The main hall is the Wicket, with the adjoining Snakepit Museum as the secondbuilding. You do not choose a building when you buy — the whole site is one festival.
THE DAY
13:00 Gates open at the Wicket lobby · live music, first set14:00 VIP dining service begins18:00 Main DJ set21:00 Last entry22:00 Close
The running order is provisional and is confirmed to ticket holders.
VIP includes a meal and a drink, priority queues at the gate, on-premisesunderground parking at no extra charge, and a private seating area beside themusic — everything a general admission ticket gets is included on top.
Children under 6 come in free and do not need a ticket. Everyone from 6 upwardsneeds a ticket of their own, and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by aresponsible adult who holds a ticket.
There are 2 450 tickets in total, split across the three releases. Each releaseis capped — once it is sold out, it is sold out, and the next release's priceapplies.
Tickets are electronic. Once payment clears your ticket is emailed to you andcarries a code that is scanned once, at the single gate.
GETTING THERE AND PARKING
The Wicket — Newlands, Camp Ground Road, Newlands, Cape Town, 7700.
Public parking is R30 per car for the day, on the Groote Schuur High Schoolsports field next to the ground, and you walk in from there. Follow the marshals,and do not park on the surrounding streets or across any driveway — the roadsaround the ground are in daily residential use and towing is enforced by the City.
VIP tickets include on-premises underground parking, so there is no charge andno queue at the gate.
ACCESS AND PHOTOGRAPHY
Both buildings have level or ramped access and accessible WCs. Companion ticketsare not charged where you need assistance — write to the festival office before youbuy and we will arrange it in advance rather than at the gate.
Handheld photography is welcome, and there is a designated detail close-up area.Tripods, drones and rigging beyond head height are not allowed on the festival floor.
There is live music and a DJ through the day and the stage uses moving lights andhaze. The museum floor and the display halls are the quieter parts of the venue —ask a marshal where the quietest route is.
