    The Kaapse Klopse (or simply Klopse) is a minstrel festival that takes place annually on 2 January and it is also referred to as Tweede Nuwe jaar (Second New Year), in Cape Town, South Africa. As many as 13,000 minstrels take to the streets garbed in bright colours, either carrying colourful umbrellas or playing an array of musical instruments. The minstrels are self organised into klopse ("clubs" in Kaapse Afrikaans, but more accurately translated as troupes in English). Participants are typically from Afrikaans-speaking working class Cape coloured families who have preserved the custom since the mid-19th century.
    People consider the festival a rite of renewal that has been shaped by the Cape’s history. The events that are associated with Klopse in the festive season include competitions for the Christmas Choirs, Cape Malay Choirs and Cape minstrel choirs. The word probably derives from the Bushman autonym !Kung.
    Although under apartheid it was called the Coon Carnival by Capetonians, local authorities have renamed the festival the Cape Town Minstrel Carnival as the term "coon" is racist and derogatory.

    The Coloureds are cool. They seemed happy to have blacks and whites in their carnival.

    I honestly don't understand why you don't have the numbers in subscribers, your content is awesome. May you see your channel grow to tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands and hopefully beyond.

    "Colored" is the American spelling. When I see it spelled that way, I think of Americans using it as a racial slur. We spell it "coloured" round these parts.

    I was in Cape Town a few months ago and asked about any of these Cape carnivals. I didn't get answers.
    So will another one happen again? I just want to witness/watch (not dress up with them). There's a particular one I saw on TV once: there were guys in full costumes and others playing all sorts of instruments.
