South Africa's colourful minstrel carnival draws thousands

Kaapse Klopse minstrels dance as their troupe moves forward during the annual Kaapse Klopse parade, also known as "Tweede Nuwe Jaar" (second New Year), in Cape Town on January 4, 2025. Thousands of colourfully costumed minstrels paraded through Cape Town Saturday in an exuberant century-old carnival rooted in the South African city's history of slavery that drew large crowds of spectators. In glitzy uniforms matched with flashy hats, parasols and face paint, the marchers walked and danced through the city's historic centre in an annual event that an organiser said had grown to become the biggest such parade on the continent.
