“Not only are we committed to supporting and developing initiatives that foster social cohesion and celebrate our rich and diverse cultural heritage, we take great pride in bringing South Africans closer to their passion,” the official said.
“For us, our two-year sponsorship of the Cape Town Street Parade gives us the opportunity to connect fans with the much-loved Klopse culture in ways they weren’t able to before, whilst also connecting the Klopse to increased opportunities to monetise their passion – something which South African artists, no matter how talented they are, are in need of.”
