Red Bull Flugtag 2025: A celebration of creativity, community
Cape Argus
|October 28, 2025
FLIGHTS OF FANCY
WITH Red Bull Flugtag’s return to South Africa, 50 teams are expected to represent a remarkable cross-section of the Rainbow Nation.
Thirteen years after 220000 spectators gathered at the V&A Waterfront, the dream of human flight is soaring back to South African shores.
On November 2, 50 teams will launch their flying machines from a 6-metre platform, transforming the iconic waterfront into a theatre of imagination, engineering, and pure South African spirit.
Red Bull Flugtag took flight in 1992 in Vienna, Austria, when daring pioneers jumped out of planes with homemade flying machines powered by nothing more than cardboard, creativity, and courage. It has thrilled over a million fans in over 50 nations ever since, including 220000 fans in Cape Town on December 9, 2012.
