Dates for SANParks Week 2024 confirmed

The dates for the 19th annual SANParks Week have been confirmed, along with a celebratory event that will be held at Marakele National Park on September 8.

On September 8, South African National Parks will host a celebratory event at Marakele National Park to kickstart the 19th annual SA National Parks Week, which will be held from September 9 to 13 and be extended to September 14 and 15 at selected national parks.

Free access to national parks does not include free access to accommodation facilities and other tourist activities. You can find the respective parks’ SA National Parks Week dates on the SANParks website.

SA National Parks Week has seen an influx of day visitors to all participating parks since its inception in 2006. SANParks also uses this time to cultivate a sense of pride in South Africa’s natural, cultural and historical heritage as protected and preserved by the national parks system.

SA National Parks Week has proved to be a successful campaign that provides education and awareness about South Africa’s inclusive approach to conservation.
