Cape Town: The Cape Wheel reopens in a new location!

One of Cape Town's most recognisable attractions, V&A Waterfront’s Cape Wheel, is finally set to reopen after a seven (+) month break to relocate it to a new location. According to V&A Waterfront Chief Executive Officer, David Green, the Cape Wheel is set to restart operations just ahead of the coming Easter holidays with ticket sales beeing open from 15 March 2023.
Now located at the V&A’s Breakwater Boulevard overlooking the waters of Granger Bay, the Cape Wheel transforms Breakwater Boulevard into a new visitor attraction, with special elevated views across Granger Bay on one side, Robben Island in the distance, views of Table Mountain on the other end, as well as sights of Signal Hill and the Cape Town stadium.

Cape Town: The "Cape Wheel" closes for relocation! [update]

update (10 January 2023): The Cape Wheel said in the comments section of its latest instagram photo on 19 December 2022 that it will reopen in early 2023. We'll keep you posted!

The famous Cape Wheel, a giant observation wheel that offers a spectacular 360 panoramic view of Cape Town from the vibrant V&A Waterfront precinct, is set to close for relocation. It will move from its current position in front of the Victoria Wharf Shopping Centre to the new location near an open grass space known as Breakwater Park. The Cape Wheel will stop operating on 19 June 2020. It will then be dismantled and be reassembled at the new site, with additional new activities like skilled games and food and beverage outlets. The Cape Wheel will re-open in time for the start of the Cape Town summer in November 2022. We'll keep you posted!
