Explore Cape Town

Cape Town offers a memorable backdrop to the IFED 2015 conference. Between sessions at the CTICC, attendees can discover harbourfront promenades, mountain viewpoints, and renowned regional cuisine.

City Highlights

  • V&A Waterfront — a working harbour with shops, restaurants, and views across Table Bay.
  • Table Mountain views — the flat-topped mountain rising behind the city centre frames much of Cape Town.
  • Western Cape surroundings — wine lands, beaches, and coastal drives are within easy day-trip distance.
  • Cape Town dining — a mix of harbour-side classics and contemporary restaurants recommended by local guides.

Plan outings before and after the scientific sessions to make the most of the host city.
