Volunteering opportunities at City Bowl Park. Meet Kan, a BMX rider from Tokyo, Japan🇯🇵. While studying English in Cape Town, Kan chose to experience the City Bowl as a live in volunteer to assist with the upkeep and running of our facility. We are delighted to have Kan here this Summer. Please feel free to say hi anytime as Kan aims to improve His English while managing our space.

There is room for another live in volunteer, please DM us if you are looking for accommodation in exchange to run our facility and add value to our space🙏

Epic day for all the skaters and spectators to see the team. Thanks to for adding some new hits in the bowl and the roof gap. Let’s just say one angle has been conquered, but there’s always more.

This First Thursday we are hosting a DIY Art Fair for local artists. Setting up stalls around the facility. We’ve always felt this space is more than just action sports and we would like the art community to also see it as their space for other radical exhibitions. Please contact for booking a space.

Spread the word as we grow the community and use of this evolving space and claim it as an inner city sanctuary to the artists. There will be a skate jam / beat trick in the bowl at sunset. Team will be setting up a stand selling prints, vintage skateboard protective gear, skateboard decks. See you there
