For those who do not know – Pink Loerie is the first and only Mardi Gras on the African Continent and the biggest and most fabulous 4 day party in the country.

The first Pink Loerie Mardi Gras, held in May 2001, was a huge success and even reached the front page of the Cape Times. Since them the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras has grown to be ever more popular with huge support from the gay and lesbian community. Even the local businesses dress their shop windows in pink and a floating trophy is awarded to the best-dressed shop.
