The Siyanda Kunene Invitational brings luxury cars, live entertainment and a fundraising initiative supporting young athletes with disabilities to Design Quarter on 14 November
 Car enthusiasts are in for a treat this November as Design Quarter in Fourways hosts the Siyanda Kunene Invitational, a special motoring event bringing together some of the most spectacular vehicles on the road, live entertainment and an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of young athletes with disabilities.
Taking place on Saturday, 14 November 2026, from 11:00 to 17:00, the free event will transform Design Quarter’s Piazza into a showcase of automotive excellence, with an impressive line-up of classic cars, supercars, exotic vehicles, classic cars, sports cars, limousines and high-performance machines on display.
The Siyanda Kunene Invitational is an annual event that celebrates Siyanda Kunene’s passion for cars and honours his legacy of generosity and giving back. While the cars will undoubtedly be a major attraction, the event has a bigger purpose: raising funds to purchase sports-adapted wheelchairs for young athletes under the age of 18 through Kopano Disability Sports.
Driving change for young athletes
At the heart of the event is a fundraising initiative that aims to make a lasting difference in the lives of young athletes with disabilities.
The funds raised will go towards purchasing sports-adapted wheelchairs, which are specially designed to enable athletes with disabilities to train and compete. Access to this equipment can open doors to sporting opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach. 100% of funds donated towards the initiative will go directly towards purchasing the wheelchairs.
Kopano Disability Sports will also host a live demonstration during the event, giving visitors an opportunity to learn more about wheelchair sports and the importance of making sporting opportunities accessible to young people with disabilities.
A spectacular day of motoring and entertainment
Adding to the atmosphere will be a performance by the PJ Simelane Secondary School Choir, along with live entertainment and special guest performances throughout the day. Entrance to the Siyanda Kunene Invitational is free, and visitors are encouraged to come along, enjoy the experience and support an initiative that will help young athletes pursue their sporting ambitions.
For Design Quarter, hosting the Siyanda Kunene Invitational is an opportunity to bring people together around a shared passion while supporting a worthy cause. Visitors can enjoy the motoring displays and entertainment before exploring the centre’s restaurants, stores and lifestyle offering.
Whether you’re a serious petrolhead, love the sight and sound of a beautiful car or simply want to enjoy a different kind of day out, the Invitational promises a beautiful day out!
