The Cape Town Zombie Walk is South Africa’s biggest Halloween event, bringing the undead to life in a thrilling, family-friendly celebration of horror, fun, and charity. Since our first Zombie Walk in 2009 with just 180 participants, the event has grown into a must-attend spectacle, attracting thousands of zombies, creatures of the night, and Halloween enthusiasts each year.

What is the Zombie Walk?

The Cape Town Zombie Walk is an all-ages, pet-friendly event where participants dress as zombies, ghouls, and the undead to march through the streets in a spine-chilling yet entertaining procession. The event is completely free to attend, making it accessible to everyone who wants to unleash their inner zombie and join the horror-filled fun.

Why We Do It

The Zombie Walk isn’t just about dressing up and scaring onlookers—it’s about community, creativity, and giving back. We proudly support local charities, such as the Lucky Lucy Foundation, helping raise funds and awareness for animal welfare and those in need. Our goal is to unite Halloween lovers, families, and horror fans for a good cause while delivering an unforgettable experience.

Safety & Organization

The Cape Town Zombie Walk is meticulously planned to ensure a 100% safe environment for all participants. We work closely with city officials to implement strict safety measures.

With a perfect safety record, the Zombie Walk remains one of Cape Town’s most trusted and well-organized public events.
