Gateway to Africa

Johannesburg is definitely South Africa's gateway to Africa - most airlines to South Africa fly directly into Johannesburg's Oliver Tambo International Airport. A few now fly from Europe or the Americas to Cape Town and the third major city, Durban, our east-coast port city is seeing increasing traffic. This was boosted with the completion of Durban's huge King Shaka Interntional Airport in time for the 2010 world cup soccer event hosted in South Africa, an event which catapulted South Africa into the world limelight.

Also check out our Gay Directory South Africa on Facebook for everything that's hot and happening in the city and beyond.

South Africa in solidarity with the US marriage equality decision

Johannesburg's and South Africa's own Mr Gay South Africa 2015, Craig Maggs, has joined the countless Facebook members who have added the rainbow filter to their profiles in celebration of the USA Supreme Court decsion which will allow gay marriage in all 50 States of the US. Congratulations on an epic decision about #love #equality. Gay Marriage has been legal in South Africa since 2006 with the promulgation of the Civil Union Act which recognises gay marriages and gay civil unions.

Goodbye to a dear father

The modern father of our nation and South Africa's favourite President died at the age of 95 last night on the 5th December 2013.

Nelson Mandela will be remembered as a world Statesman who brought unity to South Africa and peace to this part of Africa and a man loved by everyone.

CNN sets out well his life history and the passage to a peaceful transition from the National Party government pre-1994 to the democratic elections and the inauguration of our first black President under the new negotiated Constitution of the Republic. The Constitution introduced a Bill of Rights and widespread new freedoms for all citizens, regardless of race or gender. We salute you dear father and thank you for your gift to us all. May you Rest in Peace.
