Evening Excursion to Two Oceans Aquarium (5 Sept)
6SCWC delegates and their registered accompanying persons are invited to experience the Two Oceans
Aquarium, situated at the V&A Waterfront. With Cape Town situated in close proximity to meeting point
of the Indian and the Atlantic oceans, the Two Oceans Aquarium showcases the incredible diversity of
marine life found in these two different oceans. The Aquarium is one of the top tourist attractions in
Cape Town and over 3000 living sea animals, including sharks, fishes, turtles and penguins can be seen
in this spectacular underwater nature reserve. Light snacks and beverages will be served.
Evening Excursion to Iziko South African Museum (6 Sept)
6SCWC delegates and their registered accompanying persons are invited to attend a "Night at the Museum"
at the Iziko South African Museum. 'Iziko' is an isiXhosa word, meaning "a hearth". Since the hearth of
a typical African homestead usually occupies the central space, Iziko symbolises both a hub of cultural
activity, and a central place for gathering together South Africa's diverse heritage and houses more
than one and a half million specimens of scientific importance. Attendees will be invited to explore
the museum. Light snacks and beverages will be served.
Gala Dinner (7 Sept)
Enjoy a taste of Africa at Moyo on the Spier Wine Estate outside of Cape Town. Guests will be transported
by coach to the restaurant for an evening of African food and vibrant entertainment from across the
continent. Your table might be in a tree house or a Bedouin tent, and you will be surrounded by
historic and contemporary African art, artefacts, design, and ritual. Accompanying Persons are
invited to attend this event as per their registration package. Dinner and beverages will be served.

A full Accompanying Persons programme, showcasing the splendour of Cape Town, is available for the
