A GLOBAL GATEWAY FOR YOUR NEXT EVENT
At the CTICC, global connectivity meets world-class business events infrastructure, giving organisers a gateway to Cape Town and delegates a destination worth travelling for.
For event organisers, destination selection is about more than location. Accessibility, infrastructure, delegate appeal and the ability to deliver meaningful experiences all influence where global events choose to meet.
The CTICC is at the heart of Cape Town’s business events offering, with the city continuingto strengthen its position as a leading international business events destination, supported by expanding global connectivity and continued destination recognition.
In July 2026, the city welcomed LATAM Airlines’ inaugural direct service between São Paulo and Cape Town, establishing Cape Town’s first direct air link with South America. The new route opens another important gateway for international delegates and strengthens connections between Africa and the South American market.
This comes as Cape Town International Airport continues to record strong passenger growth, reaching a record 11.1 million two-way passengers in 2025. For international event organisers, improved connectivity makes it easier to bring delegates, speakers and industry leaders to the CTICC and Cape Town.
Beyond accessibility, the city continues to earn international recognition. Cape Town has been named Africa’s Leading City Destination at the World Travel Awards for five consecutive years, reinforcing its appeal as a destination where business can be combined with an exceptional visitor experience.
For conferences, exhibitions and incentive programmes, that combination matters. The CTICC brings together established business events infrastructure, international connectivity and access to a destination delegates want to experience, strengthening Cape Town’s position as a compelling choice for events with a global audience.
