The Vodacom Durban July has been moved to Saturday, 25 July, and organisers are committed to adhere to all the social distancing regulations that may be in place at that time.
Gold Circle has agreed to push back the major feature race programme by a month, starting on Sunday, 31 May, and shifting the Vodacom Durban July to Saturday 25, July, and the one hundredth running of the season-ending Gold Cup raceday, to Saturday 29, August.
Gold Circle’s marketing executive, Steve Marshall said, “The Vodacom Durban July Young Designer Award is a critical part of that programme, and it is already being worked on as part of the syllabus at many fashion design colleges and technikons. This pandemic has forced all South Africans to rethink the way we go about our daily lives, and we will be doing the same with the fashion programme and embracing digital technology as best we can to keep the important elements of the fashion programme going without compromising any of our support for the national regulations in place to fight this virus,” he added.
Vodacom Durban July supporters are urged to keep a close eye on the event website and relevant social media channels.
