Implications for our work in the Central City

• The Central City needs to be managed as a permanent events arena: venues, public spaces, public art, built and natural heritage, walking and cycling routes, public transport, varied accommodation, entertainment, retail, traders, dressing the city, outdoor advertising, public safety

• Reinforces need for Cape Town marketing and branding paradigm shift - from traditional “come to CT and escape into nature/ leisure” to “come to CT to engage with the city and its people” – on the streets, in the public places, in cafes, on sidewalks, on public transport, at events
